3 Things I Recently Told My Imaginary Boyfriend

Sean, I can’t waste any more years expecting something to happen between us. Nothing ever did, and nothing ever will. I’ve wanted you to be my boyfriend for years. Your smile, friendliness, and confidence (and handsomeness, duh) are incredibly attractive qualities. You're everything that I could ever want. But I can’t keep waiting for you to notice me. I know I have to move on. I’m mostly hopeful that the future is bright…for both of us. Here are a few things that you should know before we part ways.

Dear Single Girl, I Have More to Tell You

I know that I recently wrote you a letter about accepting your singleness while still being honest about how challenging it is. But there’s something else that’s just as important that I need to share with you: I truly believe that you're single for a reason. So Single Girl, find purpose in whatever you do while you wait to date and get married.

You Can Enjoy Your Life Even Without Prince Charming

Did I wish that I'd had a guy to sit next to during the fancy meal? Did I feel a little awkward as I danced beside my girlfriends during the slow dance? Did I think about the handsome guy on the dancefloor who was dancing oh-so-closely with his girlfriend? Yes, yes, and yes. But I survived, and you can survive, too. I truly believe that you can still enjoy your life, even without Prince Charming next to you.

Dear Single Girl

Don’t worry—I’m not going to tell you that you’re loved or wanted or valuable whether you have a boyfriend or not. You’ve heard those things a hundred times and already know that those things are true. Instead, I’m going to tell you that it's okay to cry, vent, and even scream if you need to. But I also want you to exhale.

To the Single Girl with a Lust Problem

I started thinking about Four and Tris together…holding each other tightly…kissing passionately…with Four shirtless. And I started to imagine myself in Tris’ place…with Four and I holding each other tightly…kissing passionately…and Four shirtless.

Interview with the Newlyweds (Faith’s Story)

This post corresponds with Daniel's interview last week, but this interview is from his wife (and my friend), Faith! I know you'll love what she has to say about the different stages of their relationship. And I included a Bible verse from 1 Corinthians 7, just like I did for Daniel's interview. Check it out at the end of the post! (As an exciting side note, Daniel and Faith recently let me know that they're expecting their first child in April 2021! Yay!)

Interview with the Newlyweds (Daniel’s Story)

Today's post is super special because I got to interview my friends, Daniel and Faith, about their love story. The following is Daniel's interview, but Faith's interview will be posted next week. I added a Bible verse 1 Corinthians 7, which he mentioned at the end of the interview. I hope you enjoy this post!

Am I Wanted?

As my friends sort through their romantic relationships—whether they're married, engaged, dating, or almost-dating—I sort through my feelings of emptiness, loneliness, and despair. I cling to my unwantedness. It feels wrong to cling so tightly to such an ugly feeling, but I can’t seem to let it go. I simply want to know this: Am I wanted?
