Someday, someone will walk into your life and make you realize why it never worked out with anyone else. I saw this on a poster a couple of years ago, so I kept it. I'm one of those women that have not had much success in relationships. But I am also one of those women that believes in God's promise to provide all your needs. My soulmate is one of my needs. Now if I could just stop being fooled by the wrong men. I can say this, each guy gets better than the next, so much better.
I have build this shield over and around my heart. To protect my heart is my goal. I'm currently seeing a guy now. He has potential but I need to see more. He has asked me to let down my wall but to date, he really hasn't given me a reason to fully open my heart to him. Sure he has a lot of qualities I like and could grow to love about him. But he also has some areas in his life he needs to clean up. I'm sure he can say the same about me, in fact he has.
I've given this relationship a time limit for things to develop in a slow, positive direction. Am I the woman that will make him want to change his ways, to eliminate his baggage? Is he the man that will cause me to tear down my wall, permanently? Time will tell but until then, we will get to know each other. If things keep going as they have, with areas of improvement on both our parts, we might just be each other's soulmate.
