“Don’t settle because you’re afraid you won’t find something better. Don’t compromise because you don’t want to be alone. Give your perfect life, lover and job time and space to grow into our life.”
So I ask, when is it time to move on and find something that may be better??? I have a group of guy friends that are single and want to live the single life “doing them” and then I have another group of guy friends who are in long distance and long term relationships where they often don’t receive the appreciation and love that they should. Now I understand, they are seeking guidance from God to figure out if these are situations they should be in, but I also ask them, if you aren’t being loved, appreciated and given the support you need, isn’t that also a sign from GOD that the situation was just a season and it may be time to move on?
After a couple of years, to me you should know whether you’re in a situation that you want to stay committed in. Are these guys afraid of being alone? If you’re not being loved and appreciated, move on. If that means you have to live the single life for a while then so be it.
I told my guy friends, maybe they’re just settling. Or maybe since they’ve been in their situations for so long, they’re afraid to move on and see what else is out there. Knowing these guys and what they stand for, any woman would be lucky to be with them. My advice to both guys and girls, as the quote above says “Don’t settle because you’re afraid you won’t find something better.” Of course it’s easier said then done, so whatever you decide, make sure you always follow your heart so you don’t spend time thinking “what if.”

Hey Diva!
I completely agree with the post. I see so many men (and women) settling for mates so they won’t be alone. I wrote a similar note on facebook a little while ago. Please keep up with the wisdom!
