I met with my Wise Up girls again yesterday. We talked about my unsuccessful date, the funny and awkward things that happened to me that Friday. We laughed at the different scenes of my first blind date. And they all came to a conclusion that going on a date with someone you haven't met before is not a good idea after all.
Being the youngest and most idealistic, I was forcing my friend who is 20 months older than me to start dating. But she refused and said, "Forcing yourself to fall in love just because you think it’s your turn is not a good idea." According to her, she is not yet ready to enter a relationship.
I told her that though people have different level of mental and emotional maturity in entering a real and serious relationship, we have to consider the biological maturity of our body. We cannot deny that women's body has an expiration date which is earlier than men's. As I grew older and watch how relationships around me begin and end, I realized the importance of intimacy and physical attraction in falling in love. The older you get, the less time you have to find your soulmate and the less likely that you'll attract him/her. *at least for a woman
She thinks that her prince charming will knock at her door and confess his love for her.She believes in destiny and so do I.
But what if waiting for prince charming takes forever? What if he comes by the time that you're already on you're forties and is no longer at the socially accepted marrying age.
There's nothing wrong with dating and having new friends. As I quote Wikihow, " The more people you meet, the more likely you are to meet your soulmate, so try and talk to as many people as possible. You never know if the next person you talk to could be your soulmate."
