Reason 1: You met them

Well obviously. This was the start of all your problems. if you didn't meet this person, you wouldn't be with them, by now.

You know this person I'm talking about, right? The one you probably saw across the room, the one who probably walked up to you and said the funniest pickup line ever.

They probably said, "I don't know what's wrong with my eyes, but I can't get them off you" Or something else of that sort, but for some reason you probably let them talk to you. They told you their name, you exchange

social media handles probably one of the weirdest ones or probably all of them but you did start talking.

Maybe not immediately but eventually. Or the one your friend introduced you to. I don't really know how you met but you met this person. I'm going to call this person Them.

Them told you everything about them and You told Them everything about you. You started sending 'good morning' texts and them responded with "Good morning sunshine" Or "Good morning darling", and at first, you were a little bit skeptical at first but you decided to go along with it after continuously responding "Don't call me that" Or "Why do you keep calling me that?".

Was that when you realized that they were going to be close to you?

That wasn't a big enough sign for you. You didn't realize that they were kind of rushing you into feelings. Pushing you into feelings.

But sadly, you didn't see a problem with that. You kept responding and messaging them throughout the day. Before long you were smiling at their texts and laughing at their not‐so‐funny jokes. You didn't care if you had exams the next day, if they wanted to talk to you let them talk you into fire. You thought it was one-sided until you got the message that changed the ball game.

" Do you want to get dinner with me tonight?"

" Yeah sure"

You were ecstatic you got new clothes, new perfume you got "Dressed to kill "Or whatever that means. You told all your friends and they knew all about your first date with them. They were so excited to see you so excited. Your previous breakup left them worried about you and your mental health and they were not sure you were in the right place after the last one, because it was only a few months ago and you just got into college so they're worried, but they know that you have made up your mind. You loved your ex, but they left you heartbroken, but now you want to try again.

Love again.

Dream again.

And live again.

Whatever those phrases mean?

So soon?

So early?

Are you sure this is the right idea?

You can always back down now.

It's not too late.

Or is it?

You don't back down, and you count to ten, you squeeze a stress ball, and try to ease your anxiety.

You don't still feel at ease, you feel nervous and you try as hard as possible to keep your cool.

You try to convince yourself that the nervousness is just God trying to say that they are good for you. But are they?

I feel God was telling you to stay away but do you.

Now, this is another reason you are still with them:

You went on that date with them.
