Finding a life partner is scary. Deciding who you want to spend the rest of forever with is terrifying. The thought of being spiritually, emotionally, physically, and legally bound to someone is frightening. Thinking about saying the words, “I do!” to one person and committing yourself to them until the day you die sounds petrifying.

The point I’m trying to make is that falling in love, choosing to enter a committed relationship, and getting married can all be overwhelming.

Decisions like that can make the hair on the back of your neck stand up.

That is, if you’re on the verge of choosing the wrong person.

There’s nobody who knows you better than you; Therefore, you know what’s best for you. Since you know what’s best for you, you also know who is best for you.

You know exactly what you desire in your significant other and we can only hope and pray that God sends us a perfect match.

With that being said…
