But I’d be a complete idiot to continue with something without first thinking about what I want.
I don’t think there’s anything wrong with exercising caution with love and guarding your heart. I mean, your heart is the wellspring of life.
We cannot prevent heartache always…but sometimes we can. We can stop ourselves from being impulsive and jumping the gun. We can be patient and take our time to realize what the best steps are to take before we take them.
We can follow the advice of Rachael:
So for those of you falling in love:
keep it kind, keep it good, keep it right.
Throw yourself in the midst of danger,
but keep one eye open at night.
So, with that said, I am thinking. One of my eyes is open. I’m weighing my options and asking my head if my heart is being reasonable. “Love” will thank me later.

that’s the hardest thing. i spent this weekend with a close friend who’s engaged, and we talked a lot about how we both feel there’s no “one” who’s “perfect.” everyone will bring their own set of problems. maybe one man’s (or woman’s) problems are easier for you personally to deal with or vice versa, but relationships will always take work. so the hardest thing to decide is what you are willing and able to work with/through, and what will just keep coming up and reminding you that you might have found a better fit.
if you figure out how that goes exactly, shoot me a message and share some insights
