Don’t Be a Desperate Debbie!
I’m not saying that anyone named Debbie is desperate - if that is your name, please take the title of tip with a grain of salt, but do pay attention. Men do NOT want a woman who acts desperate. When you are on the market for finding your true love, being yourself, do not appear desperate, is how to go about it.
Sometimes people can hit a rough patch in their lives when they just can’t seem to find a boyfriend or girlfriend to stay with. Eventually, they can get desperate and just settle for anybody. I don’t think you have to be a rocket scientist or even a dating counselor to see that this IS NOT how it works.
By giving up on your principles and sacrificing what you want in a person by becoming desperate and just settling with anybody, you give up what you had in mind for your future, with yourself and with another person. Remember - making a list of what you want, would like to have, and not tolerate is one way to make sure that you can stick to your principles.
Eventually, a “settle” relationship is going to end. So would you rather have love right now (and maybe not even true love) and it end soon, or would you rather wait for the real thing? Don’t think that no matter how long you might wait until Mr. Wonderful comes along, it will all be worth it?
A lot of this has to do with pressure from family, friends, and media. We hear our parents worry about us being single forever, our friends are getting married and trying to set you up with everybody they come across, and in the media, we see everybody getting married and divorced and married again all within a year or less.
If you want true love, wait. Wait until you find the person who lives up to your expectations and wants the same as you do for your future together. It will be worth it.
