Single Girl GEMS::

I more affectionately refer to my "Single Girl GEMS" as SG Gems, as most often seen on twitter.  They are merely little Khrystian tid-bits of treasure I use and pass along to other single women/girls/females/ladies...you get the point!  Let's face it!  You're single until, I'm sorry, but you get a ring on that finger, walk down the isle in wedding bliss and say "I do."  Regardless of the mind game your so-called man tells you...lol!  Just kidding; let me stop. I'm not a basher of relationships at all!  With the right man they're great!  But being single does have obvious perks (clears throat), so as a mature woman of dignity and character; I feel the need to share what, how and why I do what I do when I do it!  They are "my little secrets"! Or not!
 My list shall begin here; however, you'll see it frequently throughout all of my blog (if you haven't already) and I'll add to it as I see fit or as I remember.  Agree or disagree, but this is how I've lived my singledom!

1. Take the time to get to know YOU first!
-Honestly!  You can't be in a relationship with any one if you don't know what you stand for, believe in, trust, love, what makes you laugh and what upsets you.
2. Why buy the software, when you can download it for free!
-I'm sure you get the picture...if not comment!
3. Options***Important one here***Note the asterisks :-)
-Remember at all times you got 'em!
4. Damaged people are dangerous!
-If someone has issues...let them heal before you begin dating them.  You don't want emotional baggage on your plate.  Take it from me-in the long run, it ain't worth it!
5. Believe in fairy tales!
-They do come TRUE!
6. Don't settle!
-You always deserve more and you always deserve better! Patience is a virtue.
7. Don't settle for anything less than butterflies!
-If you're not giddy and always anticipating being around them.  Move on. A relationship shouldn't feel like a chore. It won't always be Sunshine but you'll still enjoy the rain!
8. Anytime you have to compromise YOURSELF, thoughts and ideas to FIT IN it may be a relationship you should AVOID!
9. No man is worth your tears, and when you find one that is.  He won't make you cry.
10. At all times look your BEST!  Even at your worst! 
11. Stick with LOVE.  Hate is too great a burden to bear!
12. Don't settle for anything LESS than YOUR BEST!
-Make sure he is on your level emotionally, spirtually and physically; otherwise it's a recipe for disaster!
13. Have more than one date a day!
-Keep your social calendar FULL.  Why not?! You are single! If you were dating exclusively you and your significant would probably do more than one activity a day, right?
14. Always keep a "Lawd have mercy" fund!
-It could be for those leopard print Gucci's or for that week long vacation you oh so deserve; but you got to have one, some or a little put to the side for a rainy, cloudy or sunny day!

That's ALL for now folks!  Hope you enjoy!
