Am I Really ready for Love?

After many talks about love, marriage, dating, and self esteem I'm beginning to see where I fall in the dating world. They say you can't love someone until you love yourself, but can u date when don't love yourself? Of course you can! Prostitutes, gold diggers, and many other women clearly have low self esteem and need self healing in order to love themselves, however these are the same women who get the "good ones" and live the lavish lives that many admire. An article from an U of M magazine opened my eyes to what the REAL problem is for my generation when it comes to dating (we have many problems!). We look for love in all the wrong places; the mall, the club, the liquor store, and other random places. Not to say that the love of your life isn't bouncing they ass at the club or spending all of their money on worthless t shirts and sneakers but you can't expect from JUMP to have a successful and long-lasting relationship. There is no SET place to meet your mate but you should never put too many eggs in a basket. I admit it, I'm a victim of lame internet conversation, mall shout outs, and gas station pickups and every time w/o fail it hasn't worked out! Men who have the blue balls to yell at you in public to get your attention are the same men who are willing to make u pay for the first date, and have their kids w/o giving emotional or financial help. I guess the point is have ur expectations in order before going off to find that "Barack" or "Michelle" because the smallest most trivial things can determine a lifetime or short time of disorder and chaos. I love you all, stay beautiful and if u don't feel it at least look it! *smooches*
