Beyonce said it best: "I wanted you bad, so through with that, 'cause honestly you turned out to be the be the best thing I never had."

Being one of the only few girls in the world who has never had a boyfriend, I will admit gets depressing. It seems as if I can't walk down the street or go into a public place without seeing a happy couple show their displays of affection. What is even worse is almost being in a relationship where you can finally call someone your "boyfriend" and then having it crumble before your eyes. Thus, having to start all over again at ground zero.

All my life, I had hoped and prayed that God would send me a boyfriend. Constantly, I was told by members of my family, elders in my church and even friends who were currently in a relationship to "let him find you." Even though I had known it to be true, part of me thought it was complete BS.

Then there would come times where guys would suddenly take an interest in me and honestly, I would take an interest in them. We would begin talking and hanging out. It felt as if God had finally sent me the person that I could finally call my boyfriend. That's when I would see their true colors and, believe me, it was not pretty. I had a guy tell me once that, "if we talk that's great, but if we don't I won't be crushed". That really hurt because it was then I realized I was just another number in his contact list. This also occurred in other potential relationships, just in different ways.

It was then, after my last potential relationship, that it dawned on me. These guys that I had almost been in a real relationship with, I am glad God brought them into my life. Now, I am sure you are thinking, "Why Destiny? Those relationships ended badly." Well, even though they did end on a gloomy note, I believe that God let those experiences happen to teach me to never settle. I also believe that God was saving me from all the heartbreak and emotional distress that I hear many women go through and are overcoming.

With all this being said, I am glad that I have reached the point where I finally am content in my singleness. I know one day I will meet a man that will make me see why "I am glad I found the good in goodbye."
