If you don’t know- that means it’s a NO!!

My master plan of being married and having children by the age of 30- is slowing beginning to unravel. At the age of 29, I only have 9 months, that’s right nine months, for Mr. Right to find me, get married then have a child. Highly unlikely, that will all happen by January. However, with God all things are possible right?
Hmmm-perhaps I should re-think my life plan. How about I shoot for 31? That’s seems a little more practical.
From those people I know that are happily married the conscientious is, they knew. They knew that they met Mr. Right or Mrs. Right, right away. Everything just clicked on their first date and things just seemed to fall into place.
For me, I keep coming in contact with… Mr. “I don’t know,” or Mr. “I am not sure about him.” Thoughts rush in my head like- I don’t know if this is going to work, or I don’t know if I can get past that habit or I don’t know if I can date anyone shorter than me.
Here is the sad but very useful truth: if it doesn’t feel right on the first date, then it isn’t going to work out. Period. Don’t even waste your time, energy or money on date number two.
Know that not knowing means you can cross that person off the list and patiently wait for the right person to come around.
Hi Wait a minute. What do you mean if it does not feel right the first date it will probably not work. You need to distinguish here between what did not feel right. As a Christian certain things like a person’s faith, ‘fatal habits’ like sleeping out should scare you. But if it does not ‘feel’ right simply because he was not classy enough, too short for you or even with an accent for instance is not something to base your judgement on, even a simple habit that put you completely off like nail bitting may be forgivable – although painstakingly. Take a second look you may just unearth a Mr. Right, who is better, more humble and long-lasting than a handsome prince who probably impresses every other lady who is as smart as you are. He knows it and even if you are lucky to walk down the aisle with him, his pride will be a huge burden to bear all your life. How about that?
