Relationships

(Sigh) relationships can be so confusing. I mean anyone who has ever been in a relationship, wheather you are young or old, will know that there are ups and downs to a relationship. There are relationships everywhere I look in my house. Now if you didnn't know Cameron has been living in my house and he is engaged to Chantolle(I think I spelled that right) and they have there ups and downs (but they are mostly up) and its very cute to see them together. And well my parents are married and you know...I never see them yell at each other (and that makes me happy). Well my brother doesn't have a girl(at least I hope so) but he has girls ALL OVER HIM ( and sometimes that's anoying)! As for me, well I don't have anybody special like that?

Anyway, its not just my family its almost everyone I know! And everyone from my school is asking me, " Who do you like Jessi?" and I tell them, " Not really anybody?" and they say, " Everyone likes someone." So I tell them, "Orlando Bloom." and then they give up and go torment someone else about who they like.

I had someone call me crying the other day about there boyfriend! and then they ended up hanging out with him for four hours. So you know how it is, one min. you can't wait to see them another you get so sad you start crying (by the way that was for girls). Now I don't know what you guys do but that's a big one for girls.

All you Mom's out there with younger girls, BE READY! because it will hit you fast! And for you Dads, don't freak out! It will pass. Try and be suportive, girls like it when you do that.

Now you girls out there, make sure you get to know the guy before you start a relationship with him, it will help in how the relationship turns out. And guys please treat the girl with respect.

Now young people when you tell your mom or dad about someone, the puestion will most likely be, "Is he/she a christian?" and if they aren't invite them to church or somewhere where they can meet your family and fellowship with other christians. And parents if the boy/girl isn't a christian don't freak out they most likely won't marry them.

Girls if you don't want to tell your dad because you think they will freak out, they just don't want to loose there baby girl and dads you won't you will always be the number one guy in there life. And young people, always tell your parents it will get a load off your back.

Now you may be wondering why I decided to write this. I just don't want any relationships that you or your kids may have to end up bad. And just some tips on how to keep you and your parents happy. Now you also may be wondering how I know all this stuff and its from these past few years of trial and error. But right now I have set myself strait and am going to use those tips on myself. Parents you do good! and mine have taught me very well.

Thank you for reading this and I love you guys!

Jessi,
That was awesome!!! I have been reading your posts and they are all great, but this one...
I think you'll go through your teenage years with no major issues, ok maybe some, but you have the tools to just sail through. I am very proud of you, so I can just imagine how your parents feel. I have seen a tremendous amount of growth in you.
Love,

Begoña

ok Ms.Sandie, i get your point on the whole dating non-christians thing and and I meant to say before you take them to church then just tell them that i can't go out with you until you were a true christian, but not like so that thats the only way they will ever become a christian but that you should incourage them. Anyway I have to admit I wasn't quite sure how people would respond to my post especially parents, but I am glad that people have had a good responce! k well I have to go so see ya!

Awesome post Jessi. You are a wise young lady. I have to say I do agree with Mrs. Sandie's point on the non-christian (even if you don't marry him). God's word is God's word, right? But also,a non-christian will likely not understand why you have set the boundaries you have (mainly, the physical boundaries) and they will often not respect them and may pressure you to go farther than you normally would. HOWEVER, there are MANY Christian boys who also do not respect your boundaries, but they should know better!!!! I hope your friends listen to you Jessi because you gave some very good advice there. I love you!!!
