it, but you must also be ready to except it or see it for what it is. My husband and I met when we were 12 years old. Neither one of us new at that age we would marry 11 years later. At age 16, my feelings for him were very clear. I did nothing about them. Fate brought us back together after high school and we have not be apart since. It was not appropriate for "women" to asked a man out on a date. He asked me out then.

How about Cara Fate? nm

My opinion is that fate would bring
him from Switzerland and you from Chicago or vice versa and your paths would cross. If you met "the one" you would just know it but that is just my opinion from having experienced it...soul mates just happen to be in the same city of whatever as you said it because God made it happen that way in my opinion but I'm just an old-fashioned romantic I guess. I do believe there is 1 best person for everybody but maybe for those who don't meet God's best He has another plan for their life and not marriage, etc. People who find the "one" just aren't more deserving or anything like that in my opinion it is just their destiny. I also happen to believe that God brings people into your life sometimes for a specific reason or even just a season and not forever to accomplish a purpose he has in mind for you. For instance, I had a child very young and did not marry the man. Now I'm much older and married and cannot have children with my husband. I sometimes think "why" can't my husband be my son's father and "why" couldn't I have met him instead of my son's father back then but in all honesty I don't think I was "ready" for my husband then and would not have appreciated him the way I did when I met him by meeting him later. If I had not had my son when I did, I would never have gotten to experience being a mother. I just think everything and everybody has a purpose but maybe that is just me. Sometimes it is hard to see the bigger picture.

Your first boss really sealed your fate! You had failure handed to you at the start!
How on earth can you even believe that?? There are thousands of MTs who have worked, and full time, with small children at home. Boy, talk about an encouraging post! Doom and gloom for sure! The continued negativity of the MTs on this forum is astonishing. You don't have to spend thousands and thousands of $$ to get an education, and if she's a single Mom, she'll probably qualify for complete financial aid! And the company board the last week has been full of posts from newbie grads who are getting jobs across the board, and good ones! This business is constantly ebbing and flowing, changing, but always is a lucrative career! Come on! And the person below, fg, who is negative 24/7 calls it dog meat??? I'd like to see any comparable career where I work the minimal hours I do and make fantastic $$. And, gee, me, a lowly self-educated CMT! Doom and gloom is yours if you choose it. From your own post, your first boss set the tone for you, and you accepted it. Think POSITIVE!
