�You are only ready for a relationship when you don�t need one.�



Any thoughts on this?

Would you know it that once I stoped trying to get Ladies interested in me and spent my time directing their hearts toward God, Is when I found my wife.

Interesting quote. I've heard many similar ones. In general, I do agree with it. If a person "needs" a relationship to be happy, complete, fulfilled, content, secure, etc., then that person probably needs to take some time to draw closer to God and find those things in Him. As great as a relationship may be, it will never be all that it should if God was not "enough" in the first place.

However, I do think that God gives us the desire to seek out a romantic relationship, to find that lifelong companion, and to marry. We can feel that we "need" a relationship to satisfy that desire, but at the same time be complete and secure in our relationship with God. In that case, there is no struggle against what God has planned...instead, there is a sense of peace because no matter what happens with the relationship, the person knows that God is in control.

@bcpianogirl - That is where I feel I am at. I am content with where God has me in life, but I have a desire for that human companionship that love and a relationship brings.



I think it really depends on the person as what most have said on here.
