You know life will make you cynical. I mean you watch movies and you see that two people are "made" for each other...they have butterflies and all emotional for one another. You see this and you wonder why it doesn't happen in your own life! If I'm the only one that has ever felt that way please feel free to leave me a comment to counter what I'm about to say: "THAT'S NOT REAL!!!!" Now I'm not saying that you can't fall for someone or that God doesn't have someone for you, but I'm saying that Love for a person isn't based on your emotions. (Got that from P.R. and the LF crew)
It's true though; your emotions and feelings will always change. And we can't keep dating and getting in relationships with people who we are "feeling" at the moment, because when we stop "feeling" them or we "Love them, but we're not in Love with them" anymore we've just wasted their time and our own time, and we may have missed the right one .
I want to throw out 4 points that were thrown out to me: 1. Honor your relationship with God First!!! (Love the One Being in this world that Has always been faithful and committed to you) 2. Be content in your singleness! (I'm not telling you to stop wanting to be married or have that desire, but just enjoy where God has you and ask Him to prepare you for where He wants you to be) 3. Stop Dating without a Purpose!!! (Stop dating random people and being with people because you're attracted to them!!!! Just because you're attracted to someone doesn't mean you have to DATE THEM! Get to know the person FIRST!!! Men are going to always be attracted to females and Females are going to be attracted to males, even after you get married, but that doesn't mean you have to date them or have sex with them. 4. Be friends, Have Friends, Live life with your friends!!! (That's simple... you get to know what a person is all about by getting to know them and seeing if they can handle one of the most simple, yet powerful relationship (besides knowing Christ) in the world and that's friendship. If there's a vibe with that friend and you want it to go somewhere...
Take a chance and tell them how you feel...And if it doesn't work out and you did it God's way you will still have your friendship... And that's what matters. (Thank You Jesus)(Thank You Ms. P.R.)
