Is It Possible To Ask God For A Man Who Has Done A Few Regrettable Things In The Past?

Dear Beloved by Him,
Is it possible to ask God for a man who has done a few regrettable things in the past? The reason why I asked because I know that the future husband that God will provide me will be imperfect and I’d love to marry a man who admitted to things like partying, who has a few different interests from me (but he doesn’t mind trying something new), and last but not least, still be a Godly man who can love me for who I am.
However, when I discussed with a guy friend about this, he said that a relationship with two people having different interests won’t work, even though they’re of the same faith, but I have this heavy burden in my heart and positive thoughts telling my mind that the relationship will work and that I don’t have to be with someone who’s nerdy like me in order to be in a strong relationship. Is God giving me those things or is it something else? I’m not sure if it’s Him or not, so I’d like to know what you think.
My dear sister, my name is His Precious Gift and I am in today for Beloved by Him.
As I read what you wrote I see that you want a man who would love you unconditionally. You would like a man that would have a great personality, its ok if it’s different than yours. You know he is going to have a few faults but that is all right with you. I hear all that, but the part that is important is that you want a Godly man.
First of all I want to tell you a little story about my husband and I. We have been married for 40 years and from the beginning everyone said that it was not going to work because we were so different. He is very quiet, loves to go fishing, not a dancer, and you really need to get to know him in order for him to open up .Now I am totally the opposite very outgoing, loved to dance, would not be caught dead fishing, would talk to anyone. You see my sister when you love someone and God is in the center of your lives’, everything works out because God is love .
There are people who will come up with their own ideas about what the Bible says that maybe incorrect. That is why it is so important to study the Word for yourself. The Holy Spirit is our teacher and He helps us recognize if people are right or wrong. He will remind us about what His Word says. (James 1:25) Also remember He will always reveal to us when something does not line up with the Scriptures or does not reflect the heart of God on the matter.
God made you for a purpose, and He designed your personality and gave you the gifts and abilities you need in order to accomplish His purpose for your life. Share your desires with the Lord. Ask Him to show you the right person for you, be specific. Don’t be surprised if he is totally the opposite of you. (Psalms 37:4)
He has to be a believer—2 Corinthians 6:14. You need to have peace in your heart—Philippians 4:7. God needs to be the center of your relationship—-Ephesians 5:21-33
You need to develop unity of heart through mutual submission and godly respect for one another.
Before we became believers all of us did regrettable things. We are sinners saved by grace. It is a gift of God, but what happens is that we become new creations in Christ Jesus, He not only forgives your sins, but He also “forgets your sins”. Isaiah 43:25
I will keep you in my prayers. Much love and many blessings always.
His Precious Gift.

To His Precious Gift,
This is the person whom you’ve answered her question and I’d like to thank you for your answer. The reason why I have the desire for someone different from me is because I noticed when I attended a Christian school in my latter years in high school was that people were different in interests and whatever, but that didn’t mean they united in order to worship the Lord.
For me, it would be nice if my future husband is someone who is athletic and who loves to worship with music. However, I would like to have my future husband have some of the same interests like me, such as how education is important and whatnot.
Anyway, thank you once again and I shall continue to pray for my future husband.
