For those who feel the need to speak of something they have no idea about..
For those who feel the need to put their nose in business that is not theirs..
Here are a couple of fun facts for you:
- When I moved to South Carolina, I moved into a two bedroom, two bath apartment that will eventually become the first place I share with my future husband.
- Andrew (my future husband) lives in an entirely different apartment complex about a 5 minute drive away from the apartment complex I am in.
- We do not live together.
- He does not sleep over.
- None of this is any of your business in the first place.
Sorry if I seem a little agitated in this blog, but it's only because I am. My sarcastic and blunt side is coming out and I'm sorry if it offends anyone. I continue to receive question after question, accusation after accusation about whether Andrew and I live together or not. The funny thing is that only once has one of these questions come from the actual source. The rest have just been someone confronting me and saying that another person was talking about how Andrew and I must live together since we're in the same city and he is seen in pictures at my place and I decorate with his initials.
As you can tell, I'm quite annoyed by this and wanted to set the record straight once and for all. So for all of you speculators, let me inform you truthfully that we do not live together. I decorate with his initials because I'm preparing the house to be ours when we are married. I knew how I wanted to decorate and I don't feel the need to wait to hang up the decor that I have already bought. Make sense? Good. He is in pictures at my place because, shocker, we hang out. We're engaged. We're going to spend time together. Does that mean that he lives there? No. We live in the same city, but he lives with one of his best friends. This is all normal stuff, guys.
The reason this frustrates me is because it would be very easy for Andrew to move in. It would easy for him to not have to pay rent somewhere else and just go ahead and live with me. But we don't. We choose to not live together because we want to honor our God and each other. We believe that it is right to stay pure. We believe that do that, it is best to NOT live together. And so we don't. It's not what's easy, but it's what we have decided to do. It bothers me that people who are supposed to know me, who are supposed to know us, would just assume the worst and then talk about their suspicions with others.
While you were assuming the worst from me, I had been assuming the best of you. That you wouldn't say un-true things. I guess we both were wrong.
That's really sad to me. ANYone that has known you very long should very well know your strong Christian morals and background would never allow you to even think that it's an option. I for one am one of these people and have never thought this even a remote possibility in your relationship. I'm sorry that you have been hurt by unfounded rumors.
