my take on relationships

If she's amazing, she won't be easy. If she's easy, she won't be amazing. If she's worth it, you won't give up. If you give up, you're not worth it.

This here is one of my favorite quotes about relationships. I hear a lot of older people saying that young love is a waste of time. False. There's nothing that angers me more than when people say this, and then attempt to come between you and every guy you hang around. As if I'm hooking up with every guy I see. I could fill a whole other post on this topic alone, but let's focus back and pick apart the quote I mentioned above.


If she's amazing, she won't be easy.
Take a moment and let that sink in. Now take another moment and think about the girl your with or the girl you like, and ask yourself this, is she amazing? If the answer was yes (as I'm sure it would be), I want you to ask yourself another question. Is she easy? And I'm going to throw in my own question. Does she respect herself? Now think back on the first question. Has your answer changed? If not, then she's worth keeping around.

If she's easy, she won't be amazing.
Unfortunately, it's sad how true this statement is. So many girls throw themselves to the wind and think that they have it all and realize, all too late, that they are worth so much more. This line, unlike the last one, I believe is more directed towards woman. Examine yourself and make a decision. Do you want to be crazy and have fun and trade love for shallow contentment that is lost soon after the night is over? Or do you want to wait (which is never easy) and find love that lasts a lifetime and longer? It's your choice.

If she's worth it, you won't give up.
If you think you've found the girl, hold on to her for dear life. Because just when you stop believing that she is the gem that God made her to be, someone will come along and take her from you. And 9 times out of 10, it's your fault, because you gave up and stopped believing in what you had with her.

If you give up, you're not worth it.
Boom. Take that. That's a wake up call right there. People fly through relationships like pairs of socks. So basically, if you enter into a relationship with someone, it should be serious, you should be committed, and giving up should be a last resort. Not an escape route.

Love is a precious thing. Through a lot of work, bitterness, painful words, and hurt, a beautiful relationship will blossom out that will last your entire life. And a relationship that centered around God, as friends, best friends, dating, and marriage, is going to be a hundred times better than one that is not. In everything life throws at you, God is first and most important.
