Still Looking for Love?

Let’s take a closer look at 5 key reasons why you haven’t been able to find “the love one.”

You’re looking in the wrong places 

You may be looking for “the one” in all the wrong places. If you are looking for a genuine, long-lasting romantic relationship with a potential for marriage or otherwise lifetime commitment then you shouldn’t look at apps or sites where people primarily go to hook up. Instead, opt for more traditional dating sites where people are looking for genuine matches and not just a hook up. 

You aren’t approachable enough

If you haven’t yet found “the one,” you may not be approachable enough for the people around you. Take a moment to think about how you present yourself to others, especially if you’re out on a date. Are you smiling? Making an effort to appear pleasant? Taking the time to groom yourself? You must make sure that people will want to approach you before you can find “the one.”

You are sending the wrong signals

If you haven’t been able to find someone to spend the rest of your life with yet, you may be sending out the wrong signals. People you date may think that you’re only interested in a short term fling; or someone you are trying to date may think you just want to be friends. If you keep running into the same problem with you potential relationships, then you need to take a step back to consider what signals you are sending out. 

You have strict expectations

Sometimes people don’t meet “the one” because their criteria for “the one” is simply too high. You may have very strict expectations which make it practically impossible for you to find someone to enter into a long-term relationship with; in other words, the more requirements and expectations you have, the harder it is to find someone that meets them. Consider adjusting your expectations for factors that aren’t deal breakers in a relationship.

You’re looking for someone to fill an empty space 

Another reason why you may not have found “the one” is that you aren’t actually looking for a person to have a relationship with—you’re looking for someone, anyone, to fill an empty space in your life. It’s important to look for a relationship for the right reasons, and not simply because you want someone to fill what you feel is a void in your life. You will need to reflect on why you are seeking out a relationship and hopefully you will come out the other side ready to find love.
