When it comes to dating and relationships, there is no time for all the gray area. There is no time for all the what ifs and trying to figure out what the other person is thinking or feeling. If you have to guess how they really feel about you then the foundation of the relationship is not solid. At the end of the day, you need to pray and see if they are the 1 or not. Even in knowing they’re the 1, there is still work that must be done on both sides.
I saw a post on social media a few days ago that said, “People are not dating anymore. They just talk, catch feelings, have a great time for a while and then end up ignoring each other.” I paused for a moment and thought about it. Unfortunately, that happens a bit too often. Of course, there are some key factors that may contribute to that. So, I have outlined 3 dating habits to break TODAY!
Hear me clearly, stop allowing individuals who give a halfway commitment to keep wasting your time. Don’t allow them to waste your time if they don’t want a real relationship. Notice that I said REAL. Some are in relationships, but it isn’t real. I know it’s easier said than done, but there has to come a time where you stop going around in circles or being held hostage by someone who really doesn’t know what they want.
It is an undeniable fact that God has released more blessings from heaven than you have tangibly received. So, if God has released them and you don’t see it, it’s being held up in spiritual warfare. The enemy doesn’t want you to get married, and if you do get married, they don’t want you marrying the right 1. So, witches, warlocks and sorcerers send curses trying to stop you from getting married.
When relationships don’t quite go the way you planned or you’re getting to know someone and it doesn’t go in the direction you thought, it could be disappointing. At times you may begin to wonder if you’re doing something wrong or if maybe there are some things that need to be changed. However, it’s not that you’re doing something wrong. It could very well be that you’re doing the right thing.
Today, I’m pulling from the archives and doing a blog post throwback.
Dear Duke,
I read the blog last week and it made me think about what I am currently facing and I was thinking maybe you could do a part 2 on just trust or not missing your blessing.
The gentleman I mentioned to you months ago and I are actually still talking. He has a lot of characteristics that are highly admirable and things I want in a man. Patient (annoyingly patient, LOL), kind, committed, honest, respectful, loves his family, unselfish, great listener, and LOVES kids! As we continue to learn more about each other, he is becoming more physically attractive as well; go figure, because I wouldn’t have believed that months ago.
We have heard people say that love will make you do the wrong thing. However, contrary to popular belief, that’s not true. Love doesn’t make you do anything to someone or for someone that’s wrong. Love doesn’t have that ability. God doesn’t have that ability, and God is love. Love is powerful. Love won’t make a person do the wrong thing, but love will make them do the right thing.
Dating can and should be fun when it’s not casual but with a purpose. Sometimes there can be a thin line between casual dating and dating with a purpose. You would think it wouldn’t be, but some people make it seem like it is purposeful even though they’re not all in. So, I have included 3 things to do to avoid someone wasting your time.
Tough decisions are tough for a reason. We have to make them throughout life. You can know the right thing to do, but it doesn’t always mean that the decision is easy. Some of you are in “situations” right now. It’s not a relationship, but simply a situation. For some of you it is a relationship, but it’s time to make some choices.
Breakups don’t ever feel good. Parting ways with someone you care about is not a good feeling. However, it is necessary on your journey towards the one. You must understand that just because you moved on doesn’t mean that all of you have moved on. The enemy knows how it works, so that’s why they try to secretly keep you in bondage in certain areas of your life without you knowing.
