The population of the world is over 7.3 billion. So, how do you know “the one”.
This is a question every single person wants to be answered. You want to know if the guy or lady you are going out with is the right person for you. But, before we go further, let’s quickly debunk a myth on this subject. While I was ready for marriage, I was told that there is only one person for you in this life and if you miss the person, you are screwed. I held onto this belief with my heart. The question is, is it true? Not totally. If this myth is true then what happens to people who got married to THE ONE, and later divorce or the spouse is no more? Can they still get married to someone else or stay single because they are no longer with the one? The truth is most people still get married.
So, does it still hold water? I don’t think so.
So, how do you know the person you are with is the one?
Short answer: Stop looking for the one.
Do this instead:
- Pray for God’s leading and direction to make a good choice and believe that God heard you.
- Choose someone you can rely on in good and bad times
- Choose someone that is not perfect, but is ready to work on their imperfections
- Choose someone that makes you forget your worries whenever you are with them
- Choose someone you feel free telling to tell anything without thinking twice and you don’t regret later
- Choose someone you can communicate with honestly and comfortably
- Choose someone you share common interests, values and ideals
- Choose someone that their pros outweigh their cons
In view of the above submission, let’s try to define “The one”.
The one is any lady or man that complements and contributes to your life in a positive way and is ready to be with you in good and bad times.
Do you agree?
