Just My Type

Someone once said, ~Its so funny how we set qualifications for the right person to love, while at the back of our minds we know that the person we truly love will always be an exception.~ Let me ask you this question to the single people out there, who do you consider your type when it pertains to meeting the right person you've imagined spending a lifetime with? For its a question that not only has been asked many times over, but it also causes you to stop and think about what truly matters in a relationship as one goes through the proverbial rundown of likes and dislikes. Hey, its part of the dating process as you mentally try to figure out the right type of guy/girl who gives you what's most important, especially when it involves matters of the heart.

Without a doubt, having the right person in your life who is the type that absolutely respects you is something many women consider a rarity to find these days. Why? For its a difficult situation indeed for any woman to meet a guy who doesn't have intentions of treating her as just another notch on his belt. I think it would be safe to say a woman doesn't want to be known as a mere number or the latest conquest that is bragged about to his buddies all-the-while sharing a picture to prove one's exploits, which is totally disrespectful. Let me tell you something ladies, there are guys out there who are respectful and want to experience a love not for the quantity of many women, but rather the quality of one woman.

If you think about it, when it comes to true happiness that is right for your heart you want the type of person who will honor you. When I say the word honor it refers to standing up to and defending the name of the guy/girl you love/care about from being disrespected by an individual or individuals who simply enjoy starting drama by spreading rumors that may not be true. For some, most, or all of you have been in this situation where you've been bombarded in the past by all the negativity to the point where it physically and mentally drained you. Yet, when you have someone who will fight for you either in the literal or metaphorical sense in order to not let others demean you causing emotional pain you're positively affected in a way in which you grow stronger within your heart.

Ecclesiastes 3:11 says, ~He hath made every thing beautiful and in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from beginning to end.~ For the question can be asked to those in a significant relationship, do you absolutely know the type of person you married who has instilled within his/her heart moral values. It's in those moral values in which you find God's truth, beauty, goodness, and willingness to let Him completely work in every aspect of his/her life. Essentially, He knows who each one of us are to spend the rest of our life with and as frustrating it is for us to selfishly focus on our own happiness you have to put faith in his timing and that he will send the right person for you.

About a week ago my cousin asked me the type of woman I imagined spending my life with and after some careful thought here's what I've been able to come up with. First and foremost she has a servant's heart for God; Family oriented; Grounded in the sense that she's sensible, practical, and has a good grasp on reality; Not high maintenance; Not a party girl; Drama free; She's just as beautiful dressed down as she is dressed up; Able to make me laugh; Keeps me thinking which is a good thing; Good conversationalist; Has her own independence; If she's filipina its a plus but not highly important, etc. In the end, its God who makes no exceptions when it comes to love and when it comes to my true happiness I know the woman He will send my way will be just my type.
