Dating below your standards

In the spirit of sharing guest posts, another blogger who responded to my open invitation was Atiya Townes. She authors a blog about getting her life back together, called Remaking Me, where she says "The most difficult thing to change is myself."

I love it.

She blogged a couple weeks ago about dating below your standards. She asked if I'd share it with y'all - so I thought I would. Read it here.

I love her closing paragraph:

I'm not a professional when it comes to dating. Heck, I'm not even dating right now. I do know that when you're in a relationship with someone, it needs to be for the right reasons. The right one is not going to fit into any one category, old, ugly, smart, funny, brooding or eccentric. The ONE is going to be your perfect combination of all the qualities you like. It's going to be a partnership that surpasses all the other crap you've ever experienced.

What she said.
