There is a sad story of a lady who in her previous relationships made it known to the guys she was dating that she wanted to get married and have children.
After telling them this, the guys stopped calling or ended the relationship. So she decided to change what she said about marriage so she didn’t run the next man off.
She spoke negatively about marriage but again she lost another relationship. It was only after some time she was still single and met the same man, he was married and had had a child. He told her that he wanted to get married and because of her views on marriage it turned him off her!
Be true to yourself.
If your talk of marriage and children scares off the person you’re with then so be it. That will free you up for God to bring someone who is looking for the same as you.
Do not lie to anyone or worse lie to yourself about what you really want. Let your intentions be known about what you want.
“Can two people walk together without agreeing on the direction?”
