“When are you going to get boyfriend?”
In the past year, I’ve gotten this question a whole lot… more than ever. I really don’t know why but lately people have been interested in my life in terms of relationships. And it’s like, “uhh, really?” My response a year ago would have been, “I don’t know I’m just a lonely girl in a lonely world. :::sad face::::. Starting my career, buying a new house, and a new car has just totally changed my persepctive on what’s important in life. Now, I’m not saying new cars and new houses are important.. but you know shelter is. It speaks a lot to me that I’m just sort of moving up in life and I thank God everyday for his blessings. I used to be so caught up in having a boyfriend. Now, it’s become less of a priority. And it’s mostly because I realize that I am great single. Of course, what girl wouldn’t want a boyfriend? I don’t want to be single forever, but for the first time in my life, I feel like it’s ok to be single. It’s not a sentence on my life. I have realized that I am happy with just being me. I’ve sort of grown up a little. And because I’ve never been in love doesn’t make me any less able to love someone. Someone told me, “Don’t tell anyone you haven’t been in a relationship. They’ll think you don’t know what you’re talking about. Or a guy may think you’re immature.” Immature at what? Common sense?
Really, do you feel sad for me? People seriously feel like I am doomed to failure because I’m not in a relationship and I don’t think it’s right. I’m like, “is it really that serious?” Like you have something much more than I do. I’m not knocking relationships. It’s the most crazy/beautiful experience manifested between two people. Mind you, I used to be, “OMG I most fall in love with the next person that looks my direction or blinks, walks, talks and/or breathes. Now, there’s no more pressure because I realize all I need is God/family by my side to accomplish my goals.
I got the car. The house. The career. Hm, what’s next?
…..WORLD DOMINATION!!!!!
Just kidding =p
All in all, I hope someone can see where I am coming from. ”Boyfriend” is just not at the top of my list… and it should never be. But I would love God to bless me with a man that is just everything that I need. And He has (speaking things as if they were! it’s called faith).
I just have to wait and see.
