"No lo pensé dos veces para tomar esa decisión ".../ "I didn't think twice about making that decision"...

I've heard that phrase many times from people who make decisions without thinking things through, and it's logical; some decisions are made in a matter of seconds, like deciding what drink to have at a restaurant or whether to go for a walk or not. These are decisions made instantly, and you think, "It's logical to say, 'I didn't think twice because I might regret it later.'" Unlike the decisions we make that truly matter and are serious, those shouldn't be taken lightly, as was the case for me when I made one of the most important decisions of my life: "My engagement."

It was hard for me to imagine finding someone who also wanted to get married and who would take it seriously. I spent a long time looking for someone who would be honest with me, but I reached a point where I understood that forced things don't always work out well and that taking time for myself, healing, and learning to love myself was something I had to do before making an important decision like getting married. I thought that if I wasn't capable of loving myself, it would be hard to love my partner. But as I began to mature, I learned many things that have been very useful to me now, and it was a good thing I didn't rush into anything. When the time came to formalize my relationship, from that moment on, I began to think about the important step I had to take, which was committing to the person I loved. It's not easy when you barely know the person. The problems we faced, the friction—all of that made our relationship a little tense at times, but we thought that if we truly loved and cared for each other, we would each do our part to make it work. to prove that it was so and to face together every challenge that came, and to this day it has been so.

During that time, I thought about the commitment that marriage entails. I had thought about it many times, the step I was about to take. From that moment on, I began to think about my commitment, what things I should change about myself, what things I should do to be a good girlfriend, learn to listen more, to be more understanding, honest, sincere, and empathetic—something that has been difficult for me to be for a long time. Working on that was difficult from the beginning, like learning to endure and be better every day with my partner, showing that I really wanted to commit to him. Although I still have things to learn, I continue to show him more and more each day how much I strive to demonstrate that and more.

When the engagement day arrived, I didn't know why it was a surprise. I felt so happy because I knew I had made the right decision and had taken enough time to think clearly about what committing to marriage entails. I knew I shouldn't take this decision lightly, and whatever I decided, I had to be aware of what I was doing, without forcing things, and that they would happen when the time was right. We got engaged three months ago, and I think it was a beautiful decision. I don't regret it, and although I still have a lot to learn, knowing that I took this step at the best time makes me happy.
