“He was such a waste of time.” Women often say this after they’ve put effort into dating a guy and it didn’t work out. We have high hopes after that perfect first date, but after the newness wears off, and we’re left with the real him, it’s on to the next. And all we can think of is that now, we have even less time to find Mr. Right because Mr. Wrong knocked us off track.
Some women manage to hold on to high school sweethearts and first loves, but for the ones of us who don’t, months, years, a decade or so can go by while we are still single. And for most women, this is not the way things are supposed to go.
But looking back, can you imagine if you’d settled for the guys you met in high school, college, even two weeks ago! Women seem to think there’s a window of time they have to lock down a man, while men can reach the ages of 30+ before giving settling down a serious thought. Men generally take time to work on themselves and their careers first and let the woman meant for him come find him.
Why is it that women (in general) don’t think they can do the same? Why do women feel so much pressure to settle for a man just for the sake of being in a relationship or married?

Yesterday, a couple friends and I were talking and one of them threw out the question “What if you were about to get married in a few weeks and found out that your woman (future wife) had a past of being very promiscuous?” Would you still marry her?” I answered him by saying I would marry her. I don’t believe she should be judged on her past for things that were done before we met. Of course no one wants to end up in this situation but it does happen. Hey, the freaks and man whores you knew from college will likely one day be someone’s wife or husband. Lol.
