Dating: To “Wait For Him” or Not
There is a somewhat all too common occurrence in the dating world. Girl meets boy, boy asks her out, girl and boy fall in love, than boy decides he needs his “space,” So boy dates other girls, and girl waits……
I am not going to tell you to STOP waiting. Even though, I think for the most part this is a great idea. Waiting, and being patient while their men sewed oats or whatever they wanted to phrase it worked for Kate Middleton and it worked for Jessica Biel. So it might work for you too.
But at the same time, most men, if they really are men, know what they want. And when a guy tells you he needs a break – or he needs to date other people, but he really does love you, it’s just not the right time. What he’s really saying is “I want to have my cake and eat it too.” “I want you to sit here and look pretty, and pine away fro me, and don’t you dare go eat cake yourself. But me, I’m going to bakery after bakery and look and sample a lot more cakes.” And eat LOTS of cake, he probably will. Immediately, without fail. He will eat lots and lots of …. cake.
So next time you think about waiting for your guy, sure you can think about how it worked out for a few maybe lucky, maybe not lucky, women like Kate and Jessica. Or you could think about what it’s like to be with a guy who really truly loves you for you and is ready for what you want now. And isn’t looking and gorging himself on a lot of other… cakes.
