"I Do." but no...I Really Don't.

I moved the other day and was asked why I didn't move in with Menti (still deciding if I want to call him My Love again...) but simply put...I don't play marriage. I will not live with a man until we've signed the paperwork and say "I do." I didn't do it with my first husband and I'm not going to do it if I marry again.

Moving in isn't the only thing I won't do until I get married...there's several things I'm not going to do for a man that's not my husband. For instance, cooking. Most people know I would prefer to never cook. However, if you are my husband, you will come home to a home-cooked meal just about every night. The house will be clean and the kids will be maintained...but don't expect that if you have not committed to me. I may cook for you once a month...if that...but every day? Yea right...where's the ring? You want to share a bank account? Yea right...where's the ring? How freaky can I get? Yea right...where's the ring?

I don't consider this "playing hard to get"...there's no game about it. I'm not PLAYING. You don't deserve all of me unless you commit yourself to me...and GOD. A marriage will not be healthy if God is not the center.

Commitment. I've touched on that word before...but it is a big deal to ME (maybe not everyone else).

You will get some of me...but only the committed will get it all. And don't think you can fake a commitment. What goes around... comes around, people. Don't get it twisted. You know the phrase...karma's a what? Right.

Menti is used to getting everything a woman has to offer...just because he made eye contact, smiled or called her "sweetie". Good for him. I'm not mad at him...he can't help it..that's just who he is. I understand why these women do it...he my Menti.. he's a great catch :) But honestly, I don't care how good he looks, how much money he makes or how great his is in the bedroom. These are all a definite plus...but there's just certain things he's not entitled to unless he wants to be my husband. I'm not going to sit here and list them all...but I know for a fact my husband is in store for a good wife. He who finds his wife finds a good thing. I am a good thing. We shall see if Menti gets this good thing or if he chooses to pass it up.

You may wonder, well what if Menti doesn't care about the other stuff you're not sharing with him? What if he's happy with you and what you are doing now? That's cool. So where's the ring then? My man will become my husband. Point blank. Menti knows this already. Times a tickin and time will tell. Soon I will have pictures of my ring and My Love...or soon I will be single and learning someone new.
