Why I Think There's No Such Thing As 'Meeting The Right Person At The Wrong Time'

Yesterday, a friend shared a quote on his Instagram story, which read, "There's nothing worse than meeting the perfect person at the wrong time." And all night I couldn't stop thinking about how 'time' has become the invariable third wheel in our relationships and love life.?

Friends, books, movies, articles on love and relationships will prove this theory of meeting the?right person at the wrong time: Meeting the supposed love of your life only for them to move out of the country a month later; building a close friendship with someone who is married; or how sometimes when things are moving too fast that's enough to kill the relationship.

But what if I propose an alternate theory? When the timing is wrong, the people you meet are wrong too.?

I am refuting the entire belief of meeting the right person at the wrong time. Because when you meet the right person, the timing will be right. It has to be.?

With the right person in your life, any uncertainty about the future goes away because you know you two will face whatever life throws your way together.

With the right person, you never have to worry about giving them a slot in your busy schedule. They'll always be a part of it. If the right person is in your life, you wouldn't be moving away to another city. And even if that move has to happen, they will be there right next to you. The right person will never make you second-guess yourself.?

With the right person, you will never question whether they will love you. You will just know.?

The bottom line is when we move on from someone in the name of wrong timing, we do it because deep down we know this person isn't right for us. They might appear to be absolutely perfect but if they were right, you would fight way harder and not call it wrong timing.

There will never be a right or magical time in your life where everything will be okay. As we grow older, life's challenges don't vanish, they simply change. At 23, you can crib about being lonely and how uncertain your future is. But at 43, your primary concern won't be loneliness. For some of us, it will be getting our children the education they deserve, you know.?

Just know, with the right person all those concerns about wrong timing will stand irrelevant. Because someone who is right will be a part of your life, come what may.
