Hello, Ladies. I had a conversation a few years ago with an acquaintance of mine and I am sure that she is okay with me sharing this. She is forty plus and she has never been married. She is a wonderful, God-fearing, and respectable lady, and she would be the perfect catch for any man. She has dated some men and she knows exactly what she wants.
She asked me why I wear rings and who bought them and I told her that some were bought by other people and some were bought by me. She then asked me why I would buy my own and I told her that, at my age, I cannot wait for someone to give me the gifts that I can give myself.
I have been married, so I was quite alarmed that she even asked me this question but I know that she was just asking a question. She then said that she was waiting for the big, beautiful, diamond ring that would come when the right guy finds her and asked for her hand in marriage.
She then asked me why I don't just wear the rings on my right hand and I told her that, at my age, it doesn't really matter what hand I used to display my rings.
I am going to keep it real here and say that a lot of us are waiting for a dream that may not come true.
If you are forty years old and over, you should just buy the beautiful things that you want to wear and that fantastic diamond ring that you love and enjoy it. The man of your dreams will still come if it is meant to be, even if you are wearing diamonds.
Some of us ladies are separated or divorced and we may not even be looking for another relationship but I want you ladies to keep looking good for yourself and spoil yourself if it is within your means.
A statement ring, bracelet, or necklace doesn't have to be expensive. Never put your happiness on hold because you are waiting for love. Live now, because tomorrow isn't promised.
Put some money aside and buy that big beautiful ring that you want and wear it with pride. Love yourself because nobody is going to love you more.
