I've heard it said that to get what you want, you have to ask for it. And in that spirit, I'm placing an order with the universe. Something I've never really done before. I mean, I'm looking for Mr. Right, so it's time to really put the request out there. To give it out to the world and let it go, trusting that the order is already "being filled", as it were. I mean if you don't ask, you can't get, right?
Dear God/Universe:
The following is my request, made with an open and seeking heart, trusting that you hear me and that you who blesses me every day in so many ways, expected and unexpected, seen and unseen, have already sent the answer my way. Please send me a mate who...

Most of those physical preferences that change with the wind, I leave them up to you. I will try to be patient. I trust that this prayer is already answered. And I will work hard for this relationship as I know that every successful relationship takes trust and open, honest communication, and work.
It feels like early on in our lives, every one of us is convinced to cast aside a piece of ourselves. Whether that something is as big as a sexual preference or as seemingly insignificant as a favorite color. Here's my journey to taking those pieces back.
