Leslie has a friend who made a commitment at a young age that she would not give herself in any form to any guy who crossed her path. She had a philosophy she lived by and prayed about and kept to it. "As for guys pursuing me for temporary relationships, my attitude is 'I'm already taken.' Until God brings my future husband along and I know it's him, I'm not available." This is an amazing philosophy to live by. I never said it was easy, but it's amazing. It makes total sense though. You want to be able to give yourself to your future spouse regardless of what you have been through. But, if you take yourself off the market until God has decided that it's time for you to meet your future spouse, then you will never have to go through the mess and heartache that every other person that you can probably think of has gone through. Instead, you can give yourself away to a person that you have waited your whole life for as well as continously growing in God and what He has in store for you. I say that's the best decision that anyone can make. God never said anything in this life was easy, but He did say that we would not be alone while we went through it. I'll pray about it, but I like this commitment and I may implement it into my life so I don't get carried away with the first casanova who walks my way. As Leslie says, "He'll have to win [my] heart!"
