Should I tell him I like him...
Hey y'all
I tweeted this today and it's been getting a few responses. People are like "well durr girls do it too" - my thing is, who said girls didn't do it? This tweet came from the actual thought of me liking someone and being vocal about it, then thinking the guy probably knows but he's acting like he doesn't and I truly believe if you've been vocal about how you feel about a guy, if he feels the same way then he should still pursue you as per. As far as I'm concerned, guys love to pursue the woman they think is right for them; no woman should be chasing a guy that is consistent about the way he feels about her.
A man is always intentional in his pursuit of you. If he wants you he'll make it known to you and everyone important to him, keywords: 'you' and 'important'. If he cannot tell his closest friends about you then he is NOT serious! If he hasn't verbally made it known (coupled with his actions) that he is interested in you and determined to pursue you then he is NOT serious.
I've always been the kind of person that is very vocal about how I feel about something. Like, if I think you're cute I will tell you - I don't even mind flirting but I have realised every time I have chosen for myself I get it wrong which is why I don't entertain every DM I receive on twitter, or accept every date I am asked to go on because for me my time is very precious and there is no point wasting it on things that will not prosper.
So the approach I am now taking is I need to pray about it first and talk to God first. I really cannot afford to be making the same mistakes again, I am not getting any younger and every other week my mum keeps reminding me that my husband is coming... she clearly doesn't know that I don't even have any guys on my line at the moment so hmmm.
Even when I think back to previous situations I am reminded that I did not even discuss this with God, did I even tell the author of my life that "I like this guy, what are your thoughts" - God could have clearly shown me signs way before I had even seen them and saved myself a lot of headache.
"Commit to the LORD whatever you do, and he will establish your plans". Proverbs 16:3
When you're thinking God why didn't this work? I did everything I think I am supposed to do, but the main thing I was supposed to do was tell him what my plans were pray about it then let God's will be done!
“For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the LORD, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.” Jeremiah 29:11
God only wants the best for us at the end of the day; He wants the best for us, He wants us to have a good future, so why not trust Him with your plans? Tell Him what you want, tell Him who you want, who you fancy, who you think is buff, be open with God lol. If it is meant to be it will be and if not, He will give you something better...
