It's a funny thing about life, you never really expect to meet anyone that one thinks he or she might match up perfectly with. A person can oftentimes come close but no cigar, in a manner of speaking, because each of us tend to be somewhat picky. We all tend to look for qualities that will hopefully match with every criteria in which he or she is or could be considered a potential relationship in the making. For when one does choose that one particular diamond in the rough, so to speak, its from that point on to unravel the mystery of who that person really is. In some aspects, both people must find their way through a proverbial smoken screen to truly know whether or not each is truly compatible.
Every person has that innate ability to read people as one could be dead on, dead wrong, or somewhere in the middle. Yet, when it pertains to someone that you might, probably, or could spend the rest of your life with it's really an unknown. In some ways, it's like playing a game of Russian Roulette with your heart and you absolutely don't know if you are going to make it to the end. It's that type of thinking, for myself anyway, that can make any person feel somewhat afraid of actually letting someone gradually know the real you. It's one's true self as he or she reveals one's own fears, as well as, insecurities and once shown that person may either turn and run away or stay and stand by your side.
Let me ask you this question, what is your deepest fear in life? For most or all people it's dying alone and not having someone at your side to share memorable experiences with. Every guy comes to a point in his life when he wants to settle down and start a family. It can be somewhat of a depressing situation for any person to hear that close friends have gotten engaged and oftentimes one after another. It's even more depressing when those same friends and even family members ask when one's time of holy matrimony will be, which may or may not happen. Consequently, is that optimistic attitude that can truly surprise a person when he or she stands or walks down the aisle and gets married.
Ultimately, that proverbial smoke screen will start to clear and one will get a clearer picture of the person who one wants to be with. Sometimes one, the other, or both will pass each other, but that is to be expected because every relationship a person is involved in is considered a test. A test of patience, in which he or she will encounter faults that a person will get past and if you do, then its just one less hurdle for a person to deal with. It makes the ties that bind one to another stronger as the love for each other grows even bigger. For each hurdle that one jumps over, it simply makes knowing each other emotionally, intellectually, and personally even more exciting.
In retrospect, I spent some time searching for quotes from Shakespeare to Socrates; but in all honesty the words that someone else said can't compare to what two people find within each other who will one day embark on a new journey together. Every person travels down the lonely road of life, but undoubtedly all roads lead to someone that you somehow know is the one for you. It's that one person you take a chance on, risking your heart and soul to be with. When you know you have it, don't let go of it and for every guy out there, including myself, will one day let our heart guide us to make an all important,scary, as well as, life changing decision. It's that particular decision where a guy will speak from his heart, look deeply into her eyes with love, and when down on bended knee ask this question: Will you marry me?
