I grew up in a very godly family and church. My youth minister's wife discipled me and I saw time and time again how the real life fairytale of there being one man created for you and ordained for you exists. Girl after girl in my life has fallen in love through a God-honoring courtship and is happily married. I have had this desire for as long as I can remember. I still believe that falling in love is something that is God ordained...as everything is. All my life I've been taught, "You are a princess. Someday you'll find someone to sweep you off your feet." I find myself believing this less and less. I've desired and tried to guard my heart. I long to give it to only one man, the man God has ordained for it to belong to, but I find I'm having to fight with my life against boys swooping in and stealing pieces of it. I find myself singing along to Taylor Swift's, "Stupid girl, I should have know. I not a princess, this aint a fairytale. I'm not the one you'll sweep off her feet. lead her up a stairwell. This aint Hollywood, this is a small town. I was a dreamer before you came and let me down."
Why cant they just leave me alone until they're ready to marry me...geez
