Thank you for reading, Chrissie! I'm so glad my story was helpful to you. I agree with you - the "too picky" messages are so unhelpful. I'm so glad that you aren't taking those in! It's OK to be choosy…

Thank you Christina, I loved this story! So inspiring to hold the vision for what you want in great love and know you will have it all when it is the right person!
