Crushes are fun. We all deserve some fun. And sure, it's better when crushes are realities, but for awhile, they are good.

God will give my boyfriend/future husband when He is ready because unlike me, who is truly a poor judge of character when it comes to the male species, God doesn't make mistakes. Ever!<BR/><BR/>The last relationship I had ended very, very badly just over two years ago. Mainly because I'm saved and he thinks he's his own god.<BR/><BR/>I forgave him (because I'm a Christian and only for that reason) and he'd call every now and then to ask how Boy Wonder was doing. Then he's started calling more and more frequently and is now averaging around three calls per week (I wrote a post about it to vent). If I want to get him off the phone, I just start preaching about how he's going to hell and how long eternity is. Freaks him out every time!<BR/><BR/>Rambling much? Apologies.<BR/><BR/>Ally, you know what God wants for you. Trust Him with it and it'll all work out. You don't have to do the internet dating thing. God knows all and he has everything in the universe at His disposal. He'll bring the right guy into your life when He knows you're ready.<BR/><BR/>Enjoy the crush though. The Bible says nothing about not being allowed to have a crush (unless the object of your crush belongs to someone else). Crushes are fun. Even for those over the age of thirty!<BR/><BR/>Okay, I'm done hijacking your blog now.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17276748.post-42570238298496680482008-11-21T20:26:00.000-05:002008-11-21T20:26:00.000-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17276748.post-17655508836549689672008-11-21T19:21:00.000-05:002008-11-21T19:21:00.000-05:00Kenneth: Thankfully I've not felt like I needed a ...Kenneth: Thankfully I've not felt like I needed a boyfriend to be happy in years...that's just now here I look for my fufillment.<BR/><BR/>Jennifer: Exactly.<BR/><BR/>Ys: Crushes are fun!Allyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01816929643644946388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17276748.post-84467007577898619752008-11-21T19:03:00.000-05:002008-11-21T19:03:00.000-05:00I've sure you've heard of the common saying about ...I've sure you've heard of the common saying about job search: The best time to look for a new job is when you don't need a job. I believe the same principle is true for dating. The best time to start dating (again) is when you don't feel you need a boyfriend to be happy. Whatever you decide, I wish you the best of luck.Kennethwongsfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07963630600109933279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17276748.post-45473873297067382712008-11-21T18:58:00.000-05:002008-11-21T18:58:00.000-05:00I understand.
