Let me ask you, are you dating with the intent of marriage or to be in something long term? Im curious. I keep seeing folks say that there is no point to dating if the goal isnt marriage. Sooooo if I dont want to get married, I shouldnt date? Or am I oversimplifying here? In my head Im going to date because I enjoy the excitement of it. Now, in the case of a committed relationship the goal is happiness!!!!!! I dont want to date like Im interviewing folks for a job. We are dating because we enjoy and love each other, share common interests, help each other grow and evolve but not necessarily find the need to become legal bound to that person! I think marriage works for those who want it and are willing to work at it. Personally, even though Ive been married I cant say I enjoyed the idea of forever! I think its the legal contract in my mind that trips me out and turns me off. I believe in soul mates, and people we return to throughout the course of lives but Im just not convinced that theres only one person who matches me completely and I think thats okay!!! I think its really important to have many different types of relationships and learn yourself in the process. I will also say that I believe that I could find the person who I want to spend decades with later on on my life. I know at this point Im unable to give my all to a romantic partner because Ive giving my all to raising my child, growing my company and growing up. At thirty, I havent done enough with my life to say I can settle down with a partner forever. I havent seen The Pyramids, I havent done yoga in India, I havent run wild in Kenya, I havent explored Indonesia and hundreds of other adventures. Yes, I could do that with a lover by my side but I dont find it necessary to do so. When Im in love, its so delicious and BIG and I want to do it well and with my everything but I cant do it while Im raising my child, expanding my company and exploring myself. I dont believe I would have the consistently and strength to maintain a relationship with integrity and the fullness that my lover would deserve. Thats the truth about me. So, do I absolutely love LOVE?!?! Yes!!! Do I think love is magical and spectacular? Yes! Would I be able to commit to a relationship tomorrow? NO. Would I consider it with a man who loves yoga and appreciates AND practices the principle of non attachment? Yes. Would I consider it with a man who is committed to self work and continuously reaching his highest self? Yes! Otherwise Im so not interested in a man who wants to live a neat life, within the confines of anything traditional by any stretch of the imagination. Im committed to happiness and personal growth through compassionate love, grace and passion! I love people who are committed to those things too. Im interested in building wealth monetarily, spiritually and emotionally! Life is good, great even and I am not inspired by limits, titles or expectations. Live free!!!!!!!!!!!!
