Do you believe that TRUE LOVE WAITS?

Based on my experience, I believe that true love waits in certain aspects of love. I once had a suitor and he would always tell me that he truly loves me. I wasn't ready yet to be involved in such relationship so I decided to let him wait. When he courted me for a week already, I was beginning to get pissed-off by him and I found him to an annoying person to be with. You know why? It's because he was already in a hurry to tell the world that I am his girlfriend. He would ask me from time to time if when will I say "yes, it's us". The more he asked, the more I get annoyed. In my mind, I was thinking if why was he in a hurry,I mean why can't he wait? I came up with the decision of not to let him expect anything from me but purely friendship. I told him that it may take a long time for me to engage in a boy-girl relationship and I don't think he could wait that long. Is it true love when you don't give enough time for the other to decide? Another aspect of "true love waits" was from my friend's experience. She was asked by her boyfriend to make love with him but she strongly refused because she believed that it was not yet the right time.Unfortunately her boyfriend got mad at her and my friend did not like her boyfriend's reaction so she decided to break it up with him. Is that true love? I believe that true love will always be accompanied with respect and honesty.

That guy is quite assuming huh? I guess you really shouldn't grant him the "yes" because it kind shows that he's on the possessive side which is a very bad trait for someone to be in a relationship with. In the aspect of making love, i think respect should really be there. If the girlfriend says not yet, then i guess the guy has no choice but to really wait. I really can't blame you because you're only 19 and i think you're kind of new to this boyfriend-girlfriend relationship and most especially on making love. By the time when you're around 24 or later, i guess making love will come naturally unless you really want to stay virgin before marriage.

I think my x-suitor was just pressured by his peers to have his own girlfriend but unfortunately I am the type of girl who would not easily give a "yes" to a guy. I was just a little bit bugged by my conscience when I knew that my x-suitor really cried his heart out to one of my closest friends when I told him not to court me anymore. At my age right now, my top priority is really my studies.

You know, studies isn't really an excuse not to have a boyfriend. It's just a matter of how well you manage your time and i think you'll choose a boyfriend who is understanding enough right?

Love is a great feeling which has to be expressed. If you find it true, never fail to convey, thats a tribute to the love in real.

It is good to know that you were upfront with him that you are not ready yet to get into a relationship. Men would sometimes ask you to make a decision right away and you will only regret later on. Some would want girls to say yes to them because they want something in return, just like what happened to your friend. Women also have the right to say no. Women should empower themselves so that they will not be abused by men.
