Don't you LOVE this picture? This picture made me reflect on LOVE. Just the essence of this picture made me smile when I reflected about the endless possibilities that love, not lust can bring. (SMILE)
Now for me to respond to the previous post from Nic. Dating is not for the weak it truly is survival of the fittest. You have to know who you are and what you are not. If not, you could end up in a world of trouble but when you win you win! Nic compared the city girl against the country girl. I will be the first to say that I do have my theories and I will share.
I don’t even know how to go into this lightly or without being judgmental so I won’t beat around the bush (as you know that’s not me). Southern men put California men to shame. The difference in quality amazes me every time. Our men have lost their….I can’t even begin to say what they have lost because the real question is have they ever had it. Some California men don’t have the concern, compassion the hustle or determination. Some men are more concerned with the outer shell. Which include their clothes, shoes and their prettiness. Geesh! What happened to our men wearing just sweats and a t-shirt to the grocery store? They have taken pretty boy swag to another level. Actually it’s not even ok to use pretty in the same sentence when referring to a boy or man, so we won’t.
California men are so much in competition with each other they forget about the basic principles on how to treat a woman open the doors, walk on the outside of her to protect her from traffic, take out the trash, pump the gas, walk her to her car, let her order before you. Give her your jacket when she’s cold, they don’t do that because it messes up their outfit. What I will say is that California men will do all of the above if asked to. Why do we have to ask when that’s suppose to be a part of your man DNA?
Don’t mistake my reflection to mean that I am bashing California men or think they are worthless because that is not true! I know plenty of great California men but they are overshadowed by “the others” (laughing). Also don’t think that I think southern men are perfect or what we all need, because they are not. Please believe they too have their faults. What I am saying is that country men are out weighing California men on the charts like China does the USA in education! Why? Does it have something to do with women and what women accept?
In dating the first questions you ask stay pretty much surface. Why don’t we ask the correct questions? Why don’t some of us ask the questions that will give us answers of substance? Is it because we are afraid of the answers that we know we will receive? So we would rather not hear them because when you know better you do better, and some may not be ready to do better just yet. Some are comfortable in the space they are in. To those I say you are hindering your own blessings. Step aside and get out of your own way!
Whatever your conclusion may be, and if you’re accepting lifetime partner applications just know that whatever you do and however many times you try and do it, in the end it will all fall in line according to Gods plan. The space that you are in is definitely for a reason, so embrace it and be present in the moment.
I will end with this scripture 1 Cor 13:4-8 Love is patient, love is kind, and is not jealous; love does not brag and is not arrogant, 5 does not act unbecomingly; it does not seek its own, is not provoked, does not take into account a wrong suffered, 6 does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth; 7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. 8 Love never fails
Be BLESSED
