After being strung along for a week and the person calling zero of my references, got a no for something they should’ve been able to say on day 1.
But good I grew this week from chapping it’s legit time. Yes I’m pissed. No I won’t do stupid stuff as a result. Yes I will take this more time to further get prepared for someone actually interested in me, what I’m doing, and what I’m gonna do which will be earth shattering.
Not everyone’s up for the ride I suppose.
It’s so funny, if I was meant to marry every girl I was positive I would marry, I would’ve been married to at least 10 girls by now.
God controls the world.
Hopefuly I could control my own world too!
That’s a tough one… I went out with 60+
but the one I ended up with is the perfect one for me.
took me years to get to the point of doing cheshbon hanefesh and compiling a list of the top 10 character traits I needed then married the first girl I went out with after doing that.
looked for someone I could bear to look at with at least 3 of the traits.
ended up with someone who at first I looked at as average looking then after un-addicting myself and getting to know her more personally realized I got the best that Hashem could have ever offered me
hopefully you will grow from your journey and remember that each one you date is one step closer to a better you and one step closer to your chuppa BH
whoever marries a ben-Aliyah like you will be very special and very lucky
