A friend of mine just got married or whatever, ya dig? He was telling me and a few other folks how he and his wifey met and how he didn't realize she was 'the one' until after a while of dating and what not...and it got me wondering: Do you think you've already met 'the one'? Does anyone you currently date (or not-quite-date) "fit the description of the suspect" so to speak? Do you even WANT to get married one day? Let's discuss. Grown conversation only please. Let's leave that bickering at the door.

well i def plan on gettin married...a lot of people like to try n pinpoint when they wanna get married and whatnot, but the truth is you never know when "the one" is gonna come into your life...granted gettin married at 18 or 19 is kinda young, it may be the right thing for some people....all i know is when you absolutely know that youve found the one dont let em go....as for me, im not dating anybody right now...dated some girls last year and the year b4 but really never got on the realationship level...thee is somebody im talkin to now that i could see myself with but well see what happens.....

I have not met "the one". Shoot I can't even find a decent boyfriend. I just want to the the right boyfriend and then marriage comes later. I want to get married and young. Like before 30. But I'm not rushing it or expecting it because when you do you never find. Heck I've never even been in love yet. :???:
There is a shortage of decent people these days which makes it even more difficult to date. But i believe that you'll find the guy for you. Just keep patiently waiting.

I agree. It seems like all the guys who I don't like or have nothing going on for themselves want to get with me. But the guys who I like don't want relationships. That is why I've gotten to the point where I stopped looking. I feel in due time I will find the one.

I honestly think that if we as humans started seeing people for who they are, and not what they have (or dont have), this world would be a MUCH better place. Not just on a relationship-type level, but on all social levels. Some people are so materialistic these days...and most dont realize how bad it's gotten. Of course it's good to set standards, but sometimes we let it get out of hand. There are plenty of decent people out there, Jazzy. We just seem to overlook them sometimes.

If she even brings up the topic of marriage, you'd better believe i'm proposing the damn next day.

That's a little extreme. I don't think they are the ones messing up. I will say that they are probably looking past a person who wants to be with you. But in my instance I can't help that I'm not attracted to the men who are attracted to me-for the most part. I know I have high standards and I refuse to settle for less. But at the same time I'm observant. I know that what I'm asking for is not unattainable. But it seems like everytime I like a guy he's not ready for a realtionship. Sooooo I've just been like "Whatver."

Oh, I know this isn't the case everytime. I feel you on the second underlined sentence, tho.

I want to get married. I've never really been around a couple who were like really in love or who had a lasting relationship or whatever. I just have those silly girly thoughts of true love and the whole soul mate theme. I want to get married and have kids and live happily ever after i guess... Umm as far as finding the right one.. I found someone who I would love to spend my life with.... Then again I'm so young i'm just like if it was meant to be it will be i don't stress myself over it. But like it was already said my standards are high and I wont settle for less than what I want... I just focus on being me and making the most of whatever comes my way.
