I think that all singles get like this at times. I can go to a baby shower/talk to you about your upcoming wedding and not hate you. Most days I am happy to go home, watch/do whatever I want and not be like Marisa Tomei in My Cousin Vinny with her "biological clock ticking." But, some days I wish that I did have a date. A last phone call of the night. I also know that God loves me better than I could ever think of. And so at these times I still know that God understands but also knows that I would love a husband and not a string of dates.
And lately I have noticed the books/movies that I read/watch go along with the girl getting her guy in the end.
Leap Year: Hello! She had two guys to choose from in the end.
Notting Hill: Hugh was just a regular guy that loved Julia for who she was and not just what she did.
The book that I just read was about a girl that went to live with their grandpa in the wilderness after her parents dies. She lived there until college where she met the man of her dreams only after God placed his sister in the girls life as her only friend.
Another book was about three children who get adopted separately after their parents are killed in a fire. The main sister dresses like a boy, yes a boy, to be adopted. She meets her beau after she continues to dress like a man to achieve a substantial photo career.
I read of a college group of friends that get stranded on an island. Two divorced people reconnect and falls back into love.
What about Jane Eyre? She helps her beau our of being burnt, did the right thing when she found out that he was married and still ended up with him in the end!
I could go on and on. Something Borrowed and Something Blue. She was self centered and in the end she still was given the love of her life!
What about the Shopaholic Books? She kept getting in debt and her husband never said a bad thing about her.
You may be thinking then don't read those books. But the stories and movies are all around us. Look at your friends and how they got together with their husbands. Look at the relationships around you. And I may just be holding out hope an giving prayers that one day God will bring me a man that I am supposed to be with. That's what I am praying for.
