Ever since you were little you have been planning your wedding. A big princess ball gown, horse drawn carriage in a small white church. You meet your soon-to-be husband in high school. You stay together and marry after college. You are already financially stable, able to afford a white-picket fenced house. Later, three kids and two Golden Retrievers. You vacation in the Vineyard and grow old together. Sounds perfect, right? Wrong! No one tells you how to get there. No one tells you the countless boyfriends, tubs of ice cream and romance movies you'll go through. How do you know someone is 'the one'? I don't want to go through countless men just to find the perfect one. I don't want to waste time when I could be with the right one. I don't want o go through Ben and Jerry's and binge on romance movies every time I break up with a boy. Theres no step by step guide on how to get a boyfriend, it just clicks. Being in love is a wonderful thing but I don't want to be reminded about my ex everytime I hear or see something about them. …show more content…
It's not that he might not be good enough for me but honestly I'm selfish. I want someone who has the same interests, believes in the same things, knows I have a crazy freaking schedule. However I can never have it all. If a guy asks me on a date I say no and forget about him. I want my first real boyfriend to be perfect and that's selfish and wrong. I know when I do find the right guy he wont be picture perfect but perfect for me. I'm scared I'll screw up and get my heart broken and not be able to piece it back together. All though I feel like if I was to find the right one, I'll let him slip through my
Do you ever think about marriage? If so, where, when, how, and who do you want to marry? Do any of those things even matter to you? Everyone regardless of age, gender, background, or culture will contemplate about marriage at least once in their lifetime, in fact some even plan their dream wedding since they were a kid. However, in reality, marriage is more than just a fairytale-like, dreamy concept as some cliche Hollywood films would portrait. Marriage requires countless serious negotiations and decisions, that couples would soon realize deciding on a marriage was only a tip of an iceberg of decision-making. Couples will have to decide on where to live, how to split the work at home, if they want to expand the family, have children, and etc,
Good evening Ladies and Gentlemen - I’m not an experienced public speaker, so I find it easier just to read the speech word for word. In fact, I’ve practiced it almost daily for about a week and a half now, so that I know it very well. It’s a tip that I read in a book about public speaking. I’ve also been drinking profusely to help calm my pre-speech nerves. I made that tip up myself.
“Don’t settle for a relationship that won’t let you be yourself” - Oprah. In a relationship, people have standards; people have things they need and want from their romantic partners. These standards and needs wouldn’t be met in a toxic relationship, right? In someone else's eyes they wouldn’t. But what do the people in the relationship think?
should be happy with who you but obsessing about someone else will only drive you crazy.
Here’s the thing; wanting a long and happy relationship with someone is something most people have in common. We’re hardwired to connect with others, and finding that special someone isn’t excluded from those desired connections. It’s part of what makes us human.
For my Leadership project, I volunteered at Care Partnership, a non-profit organization that cares for children that are struggling with financial needs. The children were from ages 3 to 12. I choose to volunteer at Care Partnership because it was a place that I would go to when I was a child. I have seen it evolve the past several years. As I volunteered, I had to help the children with their homework and reading skills.
Not everyone falls in love at first sight, but people usually have that one person they
When people begin dating, they are usually playing the field. Few have a strategy for finding their life mate. It is something that happens over time and as you continue to see that person and get to know them, a bond builds that is not easily broken. This is demonstrated in "Wild Nights - Wild Nights!" By Emily Dickinson. "Futile - the winds-/ to a heart in port-/ Done with the compass/ Done with the chart" (line 5-8). No matter how hard outside forces try to tempt you away, you are finished searching for your true love. You have found it and are holding fast.

However, he did believe that through your own life experiences you could understand how to better yourself, how to keep yourself from making mistakes, how to make yourself…” “Perfect.” I cut him off early, remembering my google spree a few days earlier.

Why is it so hard for women to be in a successful relationship? I recently had a conversation with one of my female friends and she told me that she just could not find it possible to be in a good relationship. I didn’t think it was that such a big deal, but then I remembered that we as women are manipulated into think that men are suppose to be dominant in starting a relationship. In return to her problem I thought that I would give some advice that will help all women work their way into successful relationships, with just three easy steps.
Some people ended with one person and that’s what I think true love but that barely happens in every person life. That person might be the one in a billion
Did you not dream of being a princess who was rescued by her knight in shining armor? I did, I realize how ridiculous it was to just sit there and wait for someone who may never show up. If he did show up, I would know he was the one because there would be sparks when we touched, my heart would rate would pick up, my stomach would be doing flips like a gymnast, fireworks would explode throughout my body as we kissed, and our hands would fit perfectly together when we intertwined our fingers. I had all these expectations for my future boyfriend, and if none of that happened then he wasn’t the man for me. I got all these ideas from romance novels.

Let the chips fall where they may, and we’ll see what happens.
