Everybody who has ever been in a relationship likes to believe at one point that the person they are with is considered "the one".
What's behind that whole idea? You all know what I'm talking about. It's something that we really can't control. Why does this happen? Because most of the time this is what hurts us the most.
We've all been through bad breakups before. They are naturally going to happen in your lifetime. They truly do make you a stronger person. You learn from your mistakes.
That's why, as a college student, I'm okay with not meeting "her" yet. I know the right time will come. There's plenty of fish in the sea.
So, why am I okay with not meeting her yet? Well, let me explain that to you.
Why Rush?
It seems like nowadays, people rush into relationships before they truly get to know the person. I'm the first to admit, I've done this before and now I've learned not to rush into anything.
Being in a relationship should be more like running a marathon than a sprint. The same should be said for finding the right person. Slowly take your time and become friends first before possibly moving it further on.
Being A Better Person
You should always be the best person possible at all times, but we all know that isn't possible. You should focus on yourself while waiting for that perfect person.
You have all the free time in the world, spend it on making yourself the best possible so when you do meet that person you're at your best.
No Pressure
Yes, it might feel like all the pressure is on you to find that someone. Most of your friends have a significant other and your family is breathing down your neck to find someone.
The thing to do is RELAX. You can control the amount of pressure you feel. You shouldn't feel pressured to find a relationship. The perfect one will come and it'll all seem so natural.
There's no pressure on you at all.
Enjoy Life
When you meet someone, do you want them to be boring or spontaneous? People love having fun and going on adventures. You can enjoy life to the fullest when being single. You get to decide what you want to do.
Live life to the fullest and be happy as much as possible. Don't be down in the dumps just because you're single.
Find your happy place and stay there and eventually someone will fit right into that happy place.
