As we go through life and start getting older, our friends start getting engaged, married, and having kids and sometimes it can feel like we're never going to reach that stage in our lives. Sometimes we wonder if that is something that will ever happen for us. But the thing about it is, even if it takes longer or if it doesn't happen, that is okay. Especially when it comes to having to wait for the right person.

So often in our society, relationships are so instant because there is the appeal to be like everyone else or the influence of technology and many other factors that contribute to this. Yet the thing is, sometimes just jumping into a relationship just for the sake of being in one isn't going to be good and it will only leave you with a broken heart.

Even though most people and society will tell you to just get a boyfriend, it doesn't mean that you should. Waiting for the right guy to come is nothing to be ashamed about. Wanting to find the guy who will treat you well and pursue you the way you deserve to be pursued. You should have the guy who you can have fun with, be serious with and just enjoy doing the mundane things with, while still being treated like a queen. And just jumping into whatever nearest relationship comes your way, is not the way to get that.

So it doesn't matter what society says or what your friends say, it is okay to wait for the right relationship to come around. You just have to keep your eyes open and surround yourself with people who will tell you truthfully how they feel about the guy you choose.

Believe me, I know it can be hard when you see everyone around you in a relationship or getting engaged, trust me I understand, but I want to be treated right and if that means waiting a little longer for the right guy to come along well then I will wait. Because why would you put yourself in a place to get hurt when you know full well that if you would've not done that, you wouldn't have gotten hurt.

Also, it does not matter what other people say or if people give you a hard time for not being in a relationship because it is your life and you can do whatever you want to. If you want to wait that's awesome if you want to get into a relationship just because that's awesome too, but you should not feel ashamed by the choice that you make. It is your love life and you have to right to make it what you want. So to the girl who feels like she's the odd one out because she isn't in a relationship, you're not alone and it's okay that you aren't. You date when you want and that is fully your choice!
