My girlfriend called me last week and said “Lex, I can’t do this anymore.” I was so confused. We hadn’t talked in a while and I thought it was because we were both busy with life. However, I was wrong. She was in a toxic relationship and embarking upon engagement. She says that she didn’t realize it was toxic until she left. “He wasn’t hitting me but I was abusing myself because I was going to settle. That made him insecure and we were pushing happiness because everything felt normal but I had this gut feeling. I thought it was nervousness but it was indeed, fear.”
The last time we spoke, she asked me to be her Matron of Honor. I don’t know much about her guy but they appeared to be happy and honestly, I was just minding my business so I didn’t pick up on any abnormalities. After our long talk, I learned that she was hurting but she was happy. She was in love but also staying due to fear. She wasn’t trusting God or her feelings because ultimately, she was afraid. My heart broke for her. Can you imagine dating for over three years and planning for an engagement and deciding to call things off? Can you believe that God showed her a sign a year ago and she never forgot it? During a short conversation with her guy, he said something and God gave her a vision. In that moment, she knew that her boyfriend was a great guy but not her guy.
Here’s a message she sent via text after we spoke:
“Lex, I’m big. I could not stay. He showed me the ring and it was beautiful but I felt it in my gut. I love him with my entire heart and soul and I know he is a great man but he is not my man. It sucks, right? Three years. I knew I would get my happy ending. I know it’s coming one day and this is one of the hardest things I’ve done. Thank you for everything little big sista and tell Stephan thanks for sharing you man.”
At the end of our call she asked me to share her story. Because her testimony is unique, I thought it was worth sharing. BUT DO NOT WORRY, SIS WILL BE ON TV ONE DAY. This woman is literally in love, BUT she walked away. If you’re a believer please keep her in your prayers. Please think about your deal breakers and like her, focus on BOSS GIRL MOVES while single. She’s a real go getter. What he brought to the table was extra. I believe that she knew she could
hold her own and still live a luxurious lifestyle. She didn’t put herself in a position where she’d ever have to bargain. Knowing her self worth and purpose allowed her to TRUST GOD AND WALK AWAY. Stay tuned for my next blog post!
