Settling Down

I recently came across a situation a young lady posted on twitter. Basically she started off by saying she is in a situation where she feels no man can be faithful and that she is on her own with her baby for the rest of her life. She has a daughter I am not sure how old she is but non the less I just wanted to touch base on the topic because it sparked my interest. She goes on to say how a man in her life proposed to her out of the blue. She was excited about the situation and all but she knew that she was not in love with this man and that she was still not totally ready to trust a man to be in her life and be totally true. On the flip side of it she feels this may be her last chance to have a family and that she should just settle down with him and hope she falls in love with him. Her grandmother did this with her grandfather and it worked. She is only 20 years old but she has been through some sticky situations with men and not to mention she has a kid.

My thoughts:

I feel that she is jumping the gun in a huge way here and that she should just be patient until a good man actually comes along and is mature enough to accept her for who she is in her situation and love her for who she is. People (men and women alike) feel that they have hit the end of the road and that whatever they can get is all there is instead of fighting for it or being patient. I believe strongly that there is someone for everyone. I totally understand what she is going through because I went through the same thing with my ex at about the same age as this young lady. I understand that you feel that you are stuck with this person and there may be no one else. I have grown to realize that is all not true. I have found someone in just a short year who is the greatest woman I have ever met in my entire life. I just waited through trial and error, mistakes, and hard times but I came out on top. Anything is possible and God has a plan for us all. Just sit tight and wait for your turn in the "blessing line" and right when you think your time is up someone will pop up and blow your mind. Just remember to be yourself and that person will love you for it. I promise. ;-)

  1. Yes, Krissy is next in the, "blessing line" bitches! LOL. Sorry, I had to.

    I agree, I've always believed that there's someone out there for everyone. Someone who compliments the other person, perfectly. Someone that will love and except you for who you are. It's just up to us to relax and wait for the moment when they come into our lives. But as humans, it's so easy to get impatient. I know I've been there plenty of times, especially as you get a little older. We have our lives all mapped out, according to timeline; married at this age, kids at such and such age. We forget that everyone is different and is ready for those experiences at different times. And it's not us, but God who decides when the time is right. He's one smart guy, I tell you.

    Cheers to the blessing line!
