"He's Gonna Be a Great Dad"

 

Today is December 5, 2021, and it's 7:40 pm. I was scrolling through Instagram when I saw his IG story. He's doing some TikTok dance with his nephews, I think. I remembered this is the very same guy who sent me the message above last May 18, 2021. Quite a long time ago already. He is so far the only guy who clearly shared his intentions, without any guessing games. I admired him for that. Unfortunately, I knew deep down, I am not the right one for him. I am a mess, I have so much to work on myself, and most of all, I am not sure if I feel the same way for him. 

Long story short, I turned him down. I know I did mention to him jokingly before that I want an intercultural marriage/relationship. Now that I thought about it, this is such an unfair standard especially for him. But anyway, the real reason why I turned him down is that he has so much he can do rather than wait for me or pursue me.

"PURSUE"-such a big word. I have never heard this from anyone except him. He has set the bar so high. He is a perfect guy, not just for me. I'm sure in the future when I will see him again with his wife, I will smile and thank God that I did not let him wait for me. God has better plans for him for sure.

Going back to the IG story, he seems to be really having fun with his nephews. I have no doubt that when he has his own family, he'll be a great husband and a dad. I genuinely pray he finds his wife in God's will. His wife will be blessed and he will be, too because God is certainly looking out for him :)

P.S.

Why can't we just love the person that loves us?
