Ok. I need some prayer help. Sometimes, with some people, I have a very short patience fuse. It usually happens with guys. I have this horrible issue of being a BIG flirt. I got in lots of trouble with this in high school. But it comes from me enjoying and relating better to guys than I do girls. Plus, I like being nice to people. I like making people feel good about themselves. Sometimes this comes off as leading people on. I ask the question all the time, "Can't I just be friends with a guy?" I'll be friends with a male, they think it's something more, I stop talking to them for a while in hopes they'll get the hint that although I'd like to be their friend I don't want anything more, then they start talking to me again, and the cycle starts all over. I get overly annoyed when I straight up tell someone that I'm dating someone else and they still pursue me for more than a friendship. I get annoyed when people pretend or think they know me when they don't at all. If you know me, great. If you don't, don't say things to me that you have no right to say. Don't try to wedge yourself into situations that I don't want you in. If I'm dating someone else, there are parts of my heart that really, in order to respect me and the guy I'm dating, you really should steer clear of anyway. I don't want you to know me any more than I give. You'll know if I want more than a friendship. And if you want to be my friend and know that there are lines that you shouldn't cross, I'll probably let you see more of my heart. If I've rejected you once, I'll probably do it again. And if it's meant to be, it'll happen. Be my friend, but if you can't strictly be my friend, then don't. Spare us both the awkward and uncomfortable pain.
Please pray that God would give me patience with these people. Please pray that God would protect my heart. Please pray that God would protect their hearts. Please pray that God would protect the "special" people in my life's hearts. Please pray that God would protect my friends hearts.
