How to (Really) Be Single
According to society, there are two types of single people.
Loner Laura: this girl lives a cursed existence as a hopeless romantic with no romantic prospects. She spends her days pining over unattainable men and crying over Nicholas Sparks movies by herself. When guys ask Laura out, her eagerness overwhelms them and often drives them away. Her desperation prevents her from evaluating if a guy is even right for her; she simply wants love and attention.
Heartbreaks & Heroines
So I may be a little late in the game. But now, at 21, I have officially experienced my first heartbreak. At first, my defensive instincts kick in and I want to think of ways to hurt him back. Or I want to try and convince myself that I don’t care as much as I thought I did, and therefore I’m fine and over it. But that would be a total lie. I loved him. And I love him. And I will most likely continue to love him.
DawnCheré Wilkerson
If you're unfamiliar with the legendary DawnCheré Wilkerson, consider the content of this article an early Christmas present with a big red bow tied neatly on top.

Becoming Proverbs 31
Growing up, I always felt the need to have a boyfriend. Once I accepted Christ as my personal Savior three years ago, I took the plunge and decided to try my hand at living the single life with a single focus: Jesus.
Don't Advertise Yourself!
"Godly women could care less if a man overlooked them. They don't jump in every guys face to be noticed. You'll never see diamonds on commercials begging for sales. When you know your worth, you understand you don't have to chase behind anyone. She will stand out to the person who can handle that blessing." - Tovares Grey
I was recently told an interesting fact: Rolls Royce does not advertise.
Godly Bachelors
Our staff at M&H often hear women ask: Where are all the nice, dateable guys hiding? Where are the Godly men, the men we want to lead us and our future homes?!
Just because we can't see the resources around us doesn't mean God can't step in and make something magical happen. Even when there's no door to open, God opens the door!
