Looking for love in the right place

Annette Bridges

Originally appeared on spirituality.com

The summer following my junior year in college, I was feeling pretty devastated and dismayed. Here's why: Although I really wanted a college education, I also believed I would find a husband while I was in school. I had just broken up with my boyfriend, however, and was no longer hopeful that my husband was on campus, waiting for me to show up.

I just wanted to be loved. I wanted to matter to someone, to be special. Fear of never finding lasting love imprisoned my thoughts, crippling right reasoning and paralyzing my judgment.
