I got in a few relationships where I jumped at the chance, just because “he” liked me. Always ended up in heart ache, and usually I was the one suffering from it. I promised myself that I would not let this happen again no matter what. That if I was to date again, it would be because of true love, and he would have to pursue me so that I would know 100% for sure that he was serious about ‘knowing me’. But then I met this guy who I knew I was interested in right away. I let him get to know me, but I made sure that I never really showed it. I let him pursue me as best I could without coming across as not interested at all. The more I got to know him the more I felt I could spend the rest of my life with him, but I STILL let him pursue me. Eventually we started dating because he was persistent…and long story short we are married now, and happily in love. It wasn’t easy though because our natural instict is usually to wear our hearts on our sleeves if we want to fall in love. I don’t really think that is the smartest method. Be willing to fall in love, but guard your heart as to who you will let it be with.
