this past weekend my best friends and I (Anna and Luke) were having a pretty deep discussion on life, love, and our futures and one of them said something that really struck home with me and I wanted to share it with y’all.
You need to make a list of 5 things that are non-negotiable things or morals that you’re looking for in a life-partner.
5 things. such as:
*christian
*non-smoker
*respects you
*has a good relationship with your family
*has self-confidence
or whatever else you think that is non-negotiable.
and stick to those things.
so say you meet someone and he only is a non-smoker and has self-confidence.
that’s 2 out of the 5 things you wanted.
that’s 40% percent.
are you willing to live with only 40% for the rest of your life?
in today’s day and age it seems that whoever we’re dating around the age of 23-26 we end up marrying just because it’s the easiest thing to do, regardless of if we truly love them and if we’re meant for them.
I encourage you to write the 5 things that you will not settle for and stick to those things.
find someone who is your 100%.
