How do we ever know we are in the right place at the right time? Are with the person that we are meant to be with forever? Are we in the right career? Do we know the right people? Do we ever know for sure what these answers are?
I don't think so.
We are where are supposed to be at this very moment because that's it. It's called having Faith. As for being in a relationship that will last the test of time, even being a married woman, I can't say that I have it. It's not that I don't love my husband and I want us to grow old together, but we don't know what might happen tomorrow. None of us do.
As for those who are looking to get married and start families, I believe that you already know deep in your heart you are or aren't with the person you are destined to be with. But I only speak from personal experience. From my very first date, I knew I was going to marry my hubby. All the other times marriage was ever brought up to me, I would have a panic attack, or get sick to my stomach, there was always something keeping me from moving forward. Now, I was engaged when I was at the young age of 20, but it fell apart. On top of when the time came for me to move to another state for him, I just couldn't bring myself to do so. Everything happens for a reason. If I would have forced myself to get married, I'm sure I would already be divorced.
I pose this question to the people who are in relationships that want to know if they are in the right relationship. If this relationship happened in your early twenties, would you marry that person? Take away the outside factors of age & biological clocks.
Deep down inside I knew I would find Mr. Right and it didn't matter how many Mr. Wrongs I had to go through. My "gut" knew who he was, so until that point, I had no problems saying good bye to Mr. Wrong. Things end for a reason. I've tried looking back to see if I missed an opportunity, but each time I did I was harshly reminded why things ended the way they did. Strongly reinforcing my decision to move on.
With this, are you happy now? If not, what are you going to do to change it? Only are you in control of whether or not you are happy.
Loving you! MerryMsBerry
So funny that you posted about listening to your gut. I'm having the same sorts of ideas floating in the dome right now.
