I know a girl who seems like the perfect package: Beautiful. Smart. Athletic. Sexy. And single. One day she’ll make for the perfect spouse. But for now, she’s totally cool with going solo. She told me:
“Why rush it? My life is great right now. I’m enjoying high school, sports, and just spending time with my friends. Dating usually just confuses everything and I am in no hurry for that.”
Going solo is cool. You don’t have to date just because you’re a teenager and you feel like that’s what you’re supposed to do. In fact, choosing not to focus on guys frees you up to focus on:
Grades.
Sports.
Today’s nail color.
Yourself.
Your Future.
Learning to milk a cow. (If you were all alone on an island with a cow, this would be important knowledge.)
Family.
College.
Today’s hair color.
Friends.
Just enjoying yourself, without all the dating drama.
Think about it! Dating doesn’t have to be your thing right now. Don’t buy all the lies that tell you “YOU GOTTA HAVE A GUY TO HAVE A LIFE!” That is a lie. Your life isn’t about some guy. It’s about YOU and what YOU make of it!
I wrote a book recently just for girls like you. It is called This Is Me. I talk a lot about this and more in the book. You can grab a copy on my website: www.Jeffreydean.com.
