“You’re happily single???”

Yes, I did have someone say that to me today. Why does it always surprise people that I’m happy with my life? people are always talking about their boyfirends and their ex-boyfriends and who’s dating who. I don’t care! And I’d rather not be gossip fodder. But seriously, why does it surprise people that I’m trying to retain what innocence that I have left. I know that a boyfriend isn’t going to fulfill my needs. I know that God has a plan for my life,and I know that when God has a man for me, he’ll plop him in my lap. Some things you have to work at, and others are just divinely inspired. I wouldn’t have my amazing musical ability if I hadn’t worked for seven long laborious years to get here. My way of “practicing” at relationships, is saving myself for one. Like, what would happen if ten years down the road the perfect man comes down the road and all four of my brothers like him. That’s like a green like from God, right? What if he looked at my track record and said “I don’t like the fact that you dated five guys in highschool”… that would triggor a really long idiotic and most likely painful conversation about past relationships. What’s the point? Why not let God take care of things, and just sit back and wait for the perfect guy to fall out of the sky? I guess in today’s culture it’s a sign of “being accepted” or cool-ness to have a significant someone. I think it’s a sign of maturity to live in a culture like this and NOT partake of it. It’s hard to have a relationship with someone, but it’s even harder to NOT have a relationship with someone when every one is pushing you towards it. It helps that I’m not a sucker for peer pressure though

Well, that’s my little note for the day(just so you know, regularity is coming, I promise)
