Things I'm tired of hearing.

Here are a couple things I'm tired of hearing. If you're tired of hearing me.....stop reading.


1. "You have SO many options on what to do with your life."

- I'm going to let you in on a little secret.... I KNOW!!!!!!! I know I have options. As a matter of fact, that's the problem! I need my course cut out for me. I want opinions from people that know me. What should I do? What do you think I would be good at? What can you see me doing? I KNOW that I have options. Not the issue.

2. "You just haven't found the right girl yet"/"The right girl is out there"

-Umm......duh? (to the first), to the second: I don't believe that. I have been thinking about these phrases and I think that people telling you this is their way of telling you A) "I'm not interested" (even though I never said I was). Or, B) This is safety statement that condemns the possibility that I might be right. I don't believe in the one. I believe that two people can make a relationship work. Period. It's all about discipline and what God deems appropriate for your two paths. I don't think there is a "one", I think there are at least....8 who could do well. But I think the latter (B) is what people are really thinking. They're condeming the possibility that I might be right (like I always am) that I'm going to be lonely for some kind of a long time. They want me to be wrong because it crushes the romantic in them. The romantic who defies most logic and all reality. Which sucks, but I try to be realistic.

And don't get me wrong. I'd love to be proven wrong. (I'm saying "wrong" a lot) But....not happening. Anytime soon anyway.


I don't know what impression you got from this. If you've told me one of these things before, this is NOT (I repeat, NOT) an attack. At all. I love you all a lot. But the fact of the matter is that I'm tired of hearing this stuff. Try telling me something I don't know, or just keeping something to yourself. Please and Thank You! Love you readers! God bless!
