A Lot of Single Gals Feel This Way

I apologize for being out for over a week - I've been Über busy the past couple of days and haven't had the time to write down my thoughts so this one's going to be quite short.

If you're single and reading this, you've probably had a general feeling of waiting to the point of being idle. You may have said to yourself, "I won't eat in another date place til I go on a date with a guy I like" or "I won't watch movies until I watch it with my boyfriend". For me, it used to be the latter, 'til I realized I was being silly. I felt like I my life wasn't complete until I meet him. Oh, how wrong I was.

It's sad to think that we haven't lived if we haven't met the one, if our lives are not whole because we haven't found our missing piece. You may think it's crazy but a lot of single girls do feel this way, they just don't admit it. There's nothing much wrong with it at first (because we all go through it), unless you start living less than your destiny. The worst part is, some girls only realize it when it's too late and they end up regretting. Each day is a gift, to both singles and couples. Live each day because it is a gift.

In a nutshell, live your life now. Live your destiny. You are complete, you just don't know it yet. Live it in graceful anticipation embark on adventures whether it's trying out a new restaurant or watching a horror flick. Do them while you're still single because they would make awesome memories.

Good (Better) Read #2 : The Rules of a Gentleman

Okay, I know I said in my previous post that brotips deserve a slow clap for their wise and witty advices, but I've come across another site that deserves a slow clap - with a standing ovation.

The Rules of a Gentleman is a compilation of advices for real men (notice how they use the word "men", not guys or boys) in a classy and sincerely truthful presentation. There are hundreds of posts on how to treat a lady, here are my favorites:

Good Read #1 : Brotips™

I stumbled upon this these pins on Pinterest..and whoever wrote these (there's over a thousand of them) deserves a slow clap.

Brotips is a compilation of tips for guys about life issues. I like how they are short yet so wise and witty - and they always hit the bull's eye. Here are some posts on boy-girl relationships.

Ladies, you might want to share these (subtly) with your man. And boys, pay attention.

What's In Your Checklist?

 My planner week of March 5-10, 2012

My weekly planner consists of daily checklists of the things I need to do. Whether they are small or large tasks, I write everything down. Call me semi-obsessive compulsive but I like seeing the bigger picture when it comes to my weekly activities. I use my highlighter to cross out the tasks I've done and I get this contented feeling when I see my white-paged planner turn neon pink at the end of each week.

I can imagine getting deeper sense of contentment when I finally cross out all the qualities and characteristics I look for in a man and realize he's the one. Okay, edit that. I'd probably be head over heels, overwhelmingly and ecstatically happy and grounded at the same time when that happens - but of course, I'll do my best not to show it so much and over react.

Do you have a checklist of the qualities you look for in a man? Do they stand the test of time, in good times or bad, for richer or poorer? Is he the kind of man you'd want your son to be?

Whether you have a long checklist or a short one, the important part is that you stick to it. If you are praying for a husband, all the more you should review your checklist to see if the guy you're dating is God's answer to your prayer. If not, then maybe he's not the one.

Character checklists are meant to be crossed out, otherwise, you'll miss a lot of important details. Surely even the least obsessive compulsive people wouldn't mind seeing their checklists full of colorful neon highlights, coz you and I both know that only means one thing :)

Not so Good VS. Good Dating Advice

I'm sure you've gotten tons of dating advice from your girl friends about how your dating mindset should be. I've had my fair share as well and while some of their advice are wise, there are those that just sound as if they are - but if misinterpreted and followed can put you in heaps of trouble.

What do you think?
