Life Lesson's Learned in 20's: "Lovey Lovey is NOT by Force"
Hello Readers!!!
Welcome to week 7 of my new series on Life, Faith &Love titled Life Lessons Learned in my 20's. Every Saturday, I will be posting a new blog of a story sent to me by one of YOU. I have loved reading all of your stories so far and I am so excited to share some of these lessons with you guys. This week life lesson stems from a writer who would prefer to stay anonymous! She opens up about her dating experiences and what she's learned from dating in her 20's so far.

"Dating in your 20's in this generation is a bit of a nightmare. A lot of women looking for serious commitment, with few men looking for the same. Most men want to date around and hook up, but with no commitment. I've had my fair struggles in relationships. First year of college, I didn't take relationships seriously. I had guy friends that I hung around with, did the hooking up thing freshmen year. Sophomore year I started desiring a more serious relationship. There was this guy who showed me interest second year, we entered into a serious relationship. I was with this man for 2 years. He was lazy, didn't take school seriously and had no vision for his life. By age 23 I started asking myself what was I doing with this type of boy? Who had no vision nor purpose for his life. I was soon completing my social work classes and wanted a more responsible man.
At age 23 I had struggles finding responsible man. I wanted to go back to my ex, because most of the men I was going on dates with just wanted to have fun, but my ex had another girlfriend by then. I just went on dates for a year, but had nothing serious. I dated another guy for a year, I had hopes this one would work out, but distance and lack of trust destroyed us. After a while I gave up on relationships.
Today I am 26 and happily single. I've decided to pause on dating. It was causing my stress in my life that joy. I've learned not to be in hurry to find love. The right person will find me at the right time. The more I focus on taking care of myself, loving myself and growing, it will make way for the right man to enter my life. Don't make the same stupid mistakes I made, don't date just to date. It'll cause you more heartache. Be happy with yourself, stay single and patient. The right person will find you at the right time.
You guys I want to apologize for missing last week Wednesday Wisdom. I had some family in town from out of state. There was lots of meetings/appts I had to be at and I didn't plan accordingly for Wednesday blog. I'm sorry! Biko, no vex, forgive me! Next week Wednesday I will be posting on The Power of Keeping Quiet. It'll be worth the wait.
As always, thank you for taking time to read this blog post!!!
Always keeping it real,
