Why You Need To Wait For Mr. Right
“No matter how long it takes, true love is always worth that wait.” I'm a firm believe when it comes to this quote. Why rush and look for love when you can just have it come to you? Well, here is why.
I am young, I know, but I am always told that I'm a lot more mature and wiser than the people my age. Also, it is possible to meet your first love at a young age and it actually work out, I've seen it for myself. So, if you're single, looking for love, or desperate for a boyfriend, keep on reading. I may be young, but if a young individual can figure this out, so can you.
I didn't get my first boyfriend until the summer I was going into high school. Sure, I had a few crushes and little flings here and there before I got my first real boyfriend but sometimes, I would feel lonely, weird that I didn't have a boyfriend, and would even pray for one.
The year before high school, I was a very happy person. I was always with my best friend at the time, Lauren, and we were both in cheer. I had a small thing for cheer and was learning about myself and what I was capable of. My focus going into high school was not on a boyfriend, but on homecoming, pep sessions, and getting my license.
I also learned to be alone and to be okay with it. I didn't strive for a boyfriend or that be the only thing I worried about. I was happy on my own and that's all that mattered to me. A boyfriend was never a need, I did feel lonely, but I knew I would find one eventually and being single all through high school is something I accepted a long time ago.
When I wasn't worried about if I had a boyfriend or not, was when I met my first love and so far, the only. I met him because my friend, Lauren, met up with a guy and he was with him. Right after I met him, I just knew. I had to have him and fortunately, I got him and still have him, two and a half years later.
I guess you could say, I got pretty lucky, as my first real boyfriend turned out to be a keeper. But, he came around when I wasn't looking for anything and turned out to be something I didn't know I needed. Now, I don't know what I would do without him. Having a boyfriend is nice, but being patient and waiting for a keeper instead of wasting your time on losers is so much better.
The point is, even though I felt alone and out of place because I didn't have a boyfriend or talked to a bunch of guys, like all my other friends did, I was happy on my own and learned to love myself.

Start loving yourself and finding yourself, instead of trying to figure out why you can't get a boyfriend. Love is hard to find, but if you stop focusing on your want for a boyfriend, it might just find you, as it did me.
