Yes we do learn from our mistakes and hopefully we never repeat them again. There is nothing wrong with listening to your heart, I am not condemning you for that. But we as women need to pay attention to the red flags that comes with every potential relationship. Some say I am guilty of not trusting and tend to drive people away with this attitude. But I do trust people to a certain extent and then the rest of the trust is earned and not easily.

You are right, people use people everywhere and its disgusting. But you know what, they are the ones that will have to pay for what they have done here on earth, they are the ones that will be judged. I plan to meet a man I have been talking to in Egypt for 6 years now. He proposed to me 5 years ago and I said no. I tested him and made him wait for me. He has never asked me for a thing. I am going to go over there and see things for myself before I decide on marriage. I am going into this with both eyes wide open. I figure no matter what happens, I will get to see a part of the world I have always wanted to see my whole life.

God Bless you and I know he will bring a good man into your life soon.
