As a single woman who's dating in 2024, it's so important to remind yourself that you deserve to be someone's first choice. You're not a backup plan. You're worthy of undivided attention, consistent effort, and chivalrous actions. Always remember your worth!

Girl to girl… šŸ’• Stop saving your cute outfits for special occasions. Wear the perfume. Take yourself on that date. Buy yourself some flowers. Try that new hairstyle. Take the pictures. Make plans with your girlfriends. Romanticize your everyday life! Baby, you don’t have to wait for a birthday, a vacation, a relationship, or a special occasion to enjoy being YOU. ā¤ļø

Hey girrrrl šŸ’•āœØ Get cute. Smell good. Put on your favorite lip gloss. Take some pictures. Go grab yourself something delicious. Laugh a little louder, treat yourself to something nice, and enjoy being THAT GIRL! šŸ’…šŸ½ Baby, you don’t need a special occasion to look good, feel good, and enjoy yourself! It’s Saturday, sis! Go be cute, blessed, booked, and a little bougie! šŸ’•šŸ„‚

CONFESSIONS OF A SINGLE WOMAN Confession 002: It’s One of Those Nights… It’s Friday night, and tonight is one of those nights when I wish I had someone to cuddle up with on the couch, watch a good movie, order takeout, and just enjoy each other’s company. Nothing extravagant. Just a cozy night in with my person. Laughing, stealing kisses, having random conversations, and feeling safe in his arms. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy my own company and the peace of my home. But some nights, I wish I had someone special to share these little moments with. I don’t need a fancy date night. Sometimes, I just want to be loved on, held close, and reminded that I’m someone’s favorite place to be. šŸ¤Ž

A man who makes loving him feel safe, peaceful, and mutual? That’s the kind of man worth keeping. šŸ„¹ā¤ļø

I don’t know who this word is for, but I believe some of you are closer to the end of your single season than you even realize. šŸ„¹šŸ™šŸ½ You’ve prayed. You’ve cried. You’ve waited. You’ve watched others receive what you’ve been believing God for, and yet you’ve continued to trust Him. But I feel such a strong sense of expectancy in my spirit. What if the very thing you’ve been praying for is closer than you think? Sis, don’t allow the length of your waiting season to make you lose faith in what God can do suddenly. I’m believing that some of you are getting ready to step into a beautiful new chapter of love, courtship, and marriage. And baby, I’m praying I’m one of them, too! šŸ˜­ā¤ļøšŸ’šŸ™šŸ½

CONFESSIONS OF A SINGLE WOMAN Confession 001: I Love My Life, But I Still Desire Love. I’ve learned to embrace my singleness. I enjoy my peace, my freedom, and the woman I’m becoming. But can I confess something? As much as I love my life, there are moments when I wish I had someone to share it with. Someone to pray with, laugh with, and experience life’s little moments with. I trust God’s timing, but I’d be lying if I said the waiting never gets lonely. I’m human, and I still desire to be loved.

Sis, hear me on this. ā¤ļøšŸ™šŸ½ I know it may feel like God is taking FOREVER to align you with your person, but trust me when I say God knows exactly what He’s doing. I’m believing that the next man you give your heart to will be the LAST man you ever have to start over with. No more almost-love. No more wondering where you stand. No more connections that lead nowhere. And baby, when that man recognizes you as the woman he wants to spend his life with, he won’t leave you guessing. He’ll pursue you with intention, love you with purpose, and be ready to build something lasting. I’m praying for that Genesis 2:23 kind of love. ā€œBone of my bones and flesh of my flesh.ā€ šŸ„¹ā¤ļøšŸ’

Dear future husband, šŸ’ I can’t wait for my LAST first date with you. Because once God aligns our paths, I’m praying there will be no more first dates with someone new, no more starting over, and no more wondering if I’ve finally met my person. And when I look back on our love story, I want to be able to say, ā€œAt last… this is the love I’ve been praying and waiting for.ā€ šŸ„¹ā¤ļøšŸ™šŸ½

Sis, if you’re feeling invisible and it seems like no man is approaching you, please know there’s nothing wrong with you, and you’re NOT ugly.ā¤ļø God just has you hidden in this season. Trust me, I’d rather be hidden than waste my time entertaining another almost-love or counterfeit connection that I’ll eventually have to heal from.

Singles, I genuinely believe the person God has for us will be better than the type we’ve convinced ourselves we want. And I’m not just saying this to encourage you. I’m speaking from a place of faith because I’m waiting and believing God for this kind of love, too. I know what it’s like to pray for something year after year, to experience disappointment, and still have to find the strength to believe that God has something beautiful in store. But one thing I refuse to do is put limitations on what God can do in my love story. I believe He’s capable of exceeding every expectation I’ve ever had, including the ones I haven’t even imagined yet. Sis, what if the love God has in store for you is greater than anything you’ve ever experienced, imagined, or prayed for? šŸ™šŸ½ā¤ļø

To those who have been in a WAITING SEASON that feels like it’s lasted forever, I want to encourage you: Don’t lose hope. Your story isn’t over. ā¤ļøšŸ™šŸ½ I believe God has not allowed your waiting to be in vain. He has seen every tear, heard every prayer, and knows every disappointment you’ve endured. He loves you too much for you to believe you have to settle for just anyone to experience love. Even in the waiting, God is working. He’s molding you, preparing you, protecting you, and preserving you for what He has in store.

To those who have been in a WAITING SEASON that seems like forever, I believe our time is near. Your WAIT has not been in vain. God has seen every tear, heard every prayer, and witnessed every disappointment. He loves you too much to allow just anyone to love you. He is molding you, saving you, and preserving you for His best.

Dear future husband, If I ever fall asleep on the sofa watching TV, which I already know is going to happen…please wake me up and tell me, ā€œCome get in the bed with me.ā€ Or better yet, just pick me up and carry me to bed. I always want to end my night close to you. I want to feel your warmth, your touch, your arms around me, or simply know that you’re right there beside me. And if you don’t want to wake me up, baby, grab a blanket and come sleep on the sofa with me. šŸ„¹ā¤ļø Love - your future wife. 😘

I don’t know who needs this reminder, but never doubt or underestimate what GOD can do in the 11th hour. ā¤ļøšŸ™šŸ½ You can still meet your person before 12/31/26. If it’s YOUR time, baby, it’s going to happen for you. God can do a lot with the time that’s left. šŸ’āœØ

Date the Sweet Man. ā¤ļø The man who is gentle with your heart. Who watches his tone when he speaks to you. Who communicates instead of shutting down. Who checks on you, reassures you, and makes his intentions clear. Who is consistent with his words AND his actions. Who makes you feel safe enough to be soft. Date the man who doesn’t have you constantly questioning where you stand or wondering how he feels about you. Baby, after experiencing love that made you anxious, confused, and guarded… a gentle, emotionally safe kind of love is going to hit DIFFERENT. šŸ„¹ā¤ļø

My prayer before this year ends: May the kind of love you’ve been seeking God for and praying for find you. ā¤ļøšŸ™šŸ½ A love that is intentional. Consistent. Mutual. Emotionally safe. God-centered. And clear about choosing YOU. The kind of love that makes you look back at everything you refused to settle for and say… ā€œGod, THIS was worth the wait.ā€ šŸ„¹ā¤ļøšŸ’
