Hello and Welcome to My Love Journey, if you new make sure to check the other post out with the same title just different number.
Well today my question is have your every felt like you just didn’t believe in love anymore for whatever reason? At one time when I was younger, I had completely gave up on love. Yes, I change that thinking real quick. The good LORD love me and he choose to send his son to die for me. Who am I to think I don’t believe in love. No matter what anyone does to you, don’t ever let them make you not believe in love. I know we go through so much in relationship or just dating and we feel ourself turn ice cold and just don’t believe that love is out there for us anymore. So have you ever felt that way before and if so what made you change that thinking? Sometimes its good to take a break from dating and just focus on yourself at time. First you got to love yourself before you can truly love anyone.
I even leave the link to the poem I wrote years ago call Don’t Believe: http://poeticjourney251.com/2011/10/29/dont-believe/
I know its been awhile since I did my love journey question, and I still have a few stories to share with you all. I love to hear from my followers. I so love to know your thoughts and opinions on anything I post. If you new at this post, do go to my categories and choose MY LOVE JOURNEY and read through. Something tells me I forgot something but if you bring it to my attention I make sure to answer in a comment!
Poets Afterthought 
I haven’t felt that way PJ, but I was with my husband Dave for so long. In dating a bit before I met him, there were a couple jerks for sure though. Nothing serious was going on thankfully so they didn’t mess me up. The weird thing for me is family and friends thinking I should be dating and all. It’s been over 8 years since Dave died, but I just don’t feel like it’s the right thing for me. He truly was my soulmate and just don’t think we get more than one. Who knows what the future holds and I do pray about it all. That may have been a strange answer to your question, but I am pretty sure you understand what I mean. I read your poem, it makes me sad about some guy hurting you and that you got feeling that way. Glad it’s behind you, praying the future holds a wonderful guy for you when the time is right PJ! 🙂

Gabby,
I truly understand, you have to do that when you ready and not before then. I was thinking about making a post about that but didn’t want to offend anyone feelings. My grandpa was dead along time and my grandmother never dated or got remarry. She gone to a better place now, so they together once again. I like your answer, remember I love to hear your opinions and thoughts and thank you for your comment on my poem. I have overcome a lot and nor do I think that way anymore. So thats a good thing for me. You continue to pray about it, and just remember only you and you only will know if you ready to step back into the dating world. God Bless 🙂

I feel for someone who has never dated, that it often feels like it doesn’t exist, but I know that it does and unfortunately or fortunately, I have yet to experience that type of “love”. The waiting part seems long and unfruitful and I have come to terms that God’s best is best. I can whine about it all day long, but after what I experienced last year…I’m glad I’m still waiting for the authentic and not the fakeness of what appeared to be “love”. Love is real, but we have to be willing to wait for it by God’s timing. While we wait, we also learn to love so that when love is shared with the other, it becomes a beautiful bond. 😀 Don’t know it my 2cents is helpful at all since it’s coming from the inexperienced lol. 😉

Taking a break just from FRETTING over your relationship with your own dear husband can do you a lot of good, giving you a chance to just BE the daughter of God you know you are! Amazing how this refreshes your love life!

I remember feeling this way in my younger days before I met my husband…I’m sure I felt like giving up at some point, but then life picks you up and God guides you forward and you just never know. I honestly think it happens when we’re not trying so hard to find it. Sorry to hear of the pain you went through in your older poem, but glad that pain is in the past~ Hugs, PJ
