We Are All Elizabeth Bennets

I, being the hopeless romantic and gullible sucker that I am, firmly believe there is someone for everyone, handcrafted to perfection by God himself for that someone. What ever God you pray to, or if you pray at all, chances are, you have loved someone unconditionally, and you have been loved as well. Whether your love be unrequited or not, and no matter how much it hurts, it is still a beautiful thing to love. That much is clear in just about every culture and every city in the world. Let's face it: girls and boys alike love love. Although it's tempting to jump the gun as soon as you meet "the one," there's also nothing wrong with taking things slow and figuring out where you stand with each other in not just this moment but in years (and decades, hopefully!) to come. And if he's the right guy, he shouldn't mind. I love telling some of my love sick friends that might be just a bit too young to understand that the one doesn't necessarily come when is most convenient: Someday, you will be the girl. Not just a girl, but the girl. You may not know to who, and he may not come today, or tomorrow, but someday, you will be the girl and he'll be the boy. Yes that's right, someday Mr. Darcy will come to sweep all of you Elizabeths off of your feet. It may not be in some elaborate, confusing courtship where he proposes multiple times, but I guarantee, he'll come in due time.

Lots of love,

Bex
