The "Perfect Man"...cue dreamy heart eyes... Every girl dreams of him and some women are lucky enough to have found him. I'm here to tell you why I, as an almost 21 year old who is in college as well as someone who has friends that are younger getting engaged/married already, don't mind waiting for my "perfect man."

When I think of my "perfect man," I often wonder what he'll look like...will his eyes be blue...green...hazel, maybe brown like mine? What color/type hair will he have? How tall will he be? And the one that I wonder most...Have I met him already?

In today's society, although I think it's starting to change, if you don't have a boyfriend then there is something wrong with you. If you don't sleep with your boyfriend...guess what...then there's something wrong with you. As most of us women know though, there isn't anything wrong with us just because we don't want to do these things.

I often mind myself, more and more, thinking about when I'll get to meet him and have him in my life. Will it be tomorrow? Will it be a couple weeks from now? Will it be a couple months? I do know though that I am super excited for whenever the time may be. I can't wait to see what adventures we will go on, what our "lazy" days will look like, even what we will argue over...I mean let's face it, just because he is the "perfect man" and I might be his "perfect girl" doesn't mean we are actually perfect.

Even though I have wondered, "Why haven't I met him yet," I know that before I meet him, I need to be ready and be confident in myself otherwise it might be harder than if I wasn't as confident in myself as I am starting to become. Ladies...and gentlemen too...don't be afraid to be single for a while and concentrate on yourself- IT'S NEVER A BAD THING TO DO! Who cares if you get called selfish? Honestly, I don't think it's always a bad thing to be a little selfish, especially if it helps you become better.

I'm going to continue to concentrate on myself, family, and friends while I'm waiting for my "perfect man" because constantly worrying or even "looking" for him isn't going to do me any good. Don't be afraid to wait. Waiting isn't always a bad thing.
