i just realized now that a simple test of patience is so hard to pass. It has been said that patience is a virtue. whoever is the author of that has been correct for all his life! in looking for a right man to have a relationship with, i believed that one of the proofs in showing that he really is sincere with me is the fact that he can and will be able to have patience to wait until i am ready to have a relationship with him. but so far right now, all those who claimed that liked me, failed in this test. am i not right to test their patience? am i so rude by doing that? to make them wait? how am i supposed to know that he really is into me? how long or short is the right time to tell that they have waited? i don't know if i am wrong all along, because it does not seem to work right now. but then again, maybe i am right, they are the wrong guys after all. not just worthy to have my time wasted.

I believe in it that patience is a virtue. I admire someone who has a long patience along with anybody. It's hard to deal with another person without patience. And it really one of the tools to make relationship strong.

Patience is a virtue, yes you are right. But is it necessary that you look into the virtues a man has so as to enter into a relationship with him? Remember that the most important ingredient,a nd the only needed one, in a relationship is LOVE. If love is present, no other virtue is needed to seal it up. There is no need to look for our ideal man or woman. Each one of us is created to fill in the shortcomings of one another, especially those whom our hearts have chosen to spend our whole life with. What is patience without love?
