GITRMM: The Difference Between Being Picky and Discerning
One of the pitfalls of dating is that we have a particular type in mind. We believe this idealized person will be our knight in shining armor, and once we meet him, we will live happily ever after in our own version of a Disney movie. The problem is that being too picky and specific about what you're looking for in a partner can prevent you from finding true love. This week, Lisa and Benjamin discuss the difference between being so picky that you eliminate some wonderful love matches and discerning enough to know what is essential to your happiness. They explain how a Guardian of Your Soul is a partner who sees all you are and helps you grow in unimaginable ways so you become more than you ever dreamed you could be.
