Here is a teaser of my latest article on Singles Warehouse.
If you’re still single and want to change the situation, two of the questions you will need to answer are: ‘why are you still single?’ and ‘how can you find love?’ The first question requires some analysis of your behavior and tendencies. It may be that you’re too hung up on your single status that you can’t see the forest for the trees.
One possibility is that you’ve been looking for a Ms. Right or Mr. Right when all the while ‘Ms. Right Now’ or ‘Mr. Right Now’ has been right in front of you. If you’re overly picky, then nobody will fit the bill and you’ll be left holding the proverbial bag that keeps asking you ‘how can you find love when you judge people too harshly?’
How Can You Find Love Despite Your Fears And Failings?
Now that you’ve understood the fact that the attitude that says ‘find me a man who’s perfect’ or ‘find me a girlfriend who’s a perfect 10 at everything’ isn’t the right way to go about finding true love, you’re ready to remove all the roadblocks that are in the way of you being in a solid relationship. One of the major reasons for being single is past relationships. If you’re still hung up on your ex-girlfriend and how she ripped your heart out, you’re probably missing all the opportunities that present themselves.

Great post Lorii! Love won’t come in and you can’t notice it coming if you close your window and shut the door. =)
Great article and so true! Thanks for sharing Lorii.
Perfectionism sure does wreck lives and plays a huge role in relationships.
‘If you’re still hung up on your ex-girlfriend and how she ripped your heart out, you’re probably missing all the opportunities that present themselves’. This is true. Unless and until we deal with and let go of the past, we cannot move toward opportunity.
Perfection is an illusion…and those unrealistic expectations set people up for failure before they even start. Great post, Lorii!
Great post Lorii!
Once people realize no one is perfect it is easier to get into a relationship and grow.
Great post – so right, you have to lose the judgement and open up to the unexpected.
I agree with you, Elizabeth. Everyone is perfect in the eyes of the Creator but for humans’ point of view, it is rough to see perfection because of many variables. You just have to keep on focusing on the goodness so somehow you will see more goodness. If you actually found someone who is around 70% of what you are looking for, that is already a jackpot. And, of course, to find the characteristics that you are looking for,you have to match those qualifications.
Great advice Lorii, don’t judge new possibilities by your past relationships, leave that baggage behind.
I love this! i think this is what holds many back.. they are not perfect and are expecting perfect..;)
