The dating game...

I have been doing a lot of thinking and changing lately. Most of you know that over a year ago I decided to change my life around. I did this for me. However, throughout the past year I have made many steps in the right direction, but I have also gone back and forth into the wrong directions. I have been able to be easily pursuaded in many things, but however I have been able to stand strong on many, many things. For instance, I have learned to say no to going to parties and drinking. I also have been able to stay single and abstinent for a long, long time. However, after watching the four videos that I posted in this post, I have learned that although I have not been in a relationship, I have been looking and this preacher taught me that in order to find the person I'm meant to be with that I need to be the person that the person I want to be with is looking for. Tricky right?

Well, am I the person that the person I'm looking for is looking for? At this point in my life, although I am strong and although I am headed in the direction I want to be in and as much as I hate to say it I am actually not there yet. The man I am looking for would probably still not want to be with a girl like me, YET. But I am working on making myself into THAT girl that he would want to be with.

So this preacher challenged me to not date anyone for another whole year just to work on myself and make myself into the person that the person I am looking for wants to be with. I'm not sure if I should accept this challenge because I have gone so long already without being in a relationship, but I also am using that as my backbone to actually do this. That meaning that I have gone this long without being in a relationship so what is another year of singleness going to harm especially if it means that something great could come out of this.

Like the preacher in the video states "This is not a sacrifice, but an Investment".

So should I go for this whole year thing or just keep working on myself and when the time is right go back to dating?
