I remember being at school during morning meeting and looking around at everybody, 350 kids, saying a prayer.

I want someone who can respectfully challenge me. I know what I believe, so there's no point in my taking on a relationship with someone who thinks like me or laughs at what I laugh at. I enjoy being with someone who can offer me the opposite.
