Not to give much credibility to the storylines of those movies, but it does offer a sense of hope doesn't it?
If there’s one good concept we can all learn from the
“uptight, picky” women in these films and apply to our own lives it would be
refusing to settle with a “right here, right now” type of guy just to fulfill a
fraction of your lifetime.
Ladies, do yourselves a favor and NEVER settle.
Forget about all that nonsense about your biological clock
and its ticking.
Being in a relationship isn't as necessary as maintaining
your dignity, your power to choose carefully who you want to spend the rest of
your life with, let alone preserving your
precious time in general whether it is 6 months or 2 weeks.
There is nothing wrong with having a list of qualities that you would like to see in your future man. Of course those qualities should be measurable and realistic, containing no signs of shallow thinking, vanity or gold-digging tendencies.
On the matter of having a list while finding your life-mate,
the phrase “Stand for something or fall for anything” rings true.
You don’t want to go through life just saying “alright” to
any “nice” guy that comes along even though he has none of the qualities that
you have set.
Believe you deserve the right man who will treat you with as
much respect as you’ll treat him.
Maybe this post will range in audiences from women who are
tired of waiting for the right guy after so many wrong ones or to those who are
simply tired of waiting after having no guy.
Either way it goes, while you wait, date yourself. Don’t
throw shade at other happy couples because your man hasn’t found you yet. Be
happy for them and be happy for the life you still have left. There’s nothing
more fulfilling than being a single woman who is content with her singleness,
but not in a way that shows “I don’t need no man!”
Always have in the back of your mind what you’re looking for
when courting a man. Be real with him and more importantly, be real with
yourself.
That was perfectly said. I love the part when you said "either way it goes, while you wait, date yourself". Often times when couples are in relationships we often times loose ourselves because of the mask we put on. But it is better to be in a relationship that is healthy or just date yourself and get more in tuned with what you can live with/ not live with. Also, I love the fact that you said "Always have in the back of your mind what your looking for when courting a man". It makes life easier when your friends first. When your friends you can see the baggage that he or she could bring to the table. That will help reveal to you wither he or she is worth being with. Good points .
