Step 1
Find someone. This is easier said than done. As the saying goes, you will find someone when you stop looking. It works for some, and not for others. When you find someone you really want to share something with, you can begin the process of falling in love.

Step 2
Share yourself. Being open and honest is the best way to endear someone to you, and is a good way to get them to reciprocate. It is a difficult task, but let down your guard and really let the other person see who you are. We like people because of their good qualities, and we love them because of their flaws.
-
Step 3
Be flexible. When humans become too rigid, it is difficult for them to share love and life. Allowing yourself to grow with someone will ease you into falling in love. This does not mean that you should change for anyone, or that you should expect them to change for you. It means sit back and relax, and let things happen. Love cannot be forced.
-
Step 4
Allow yourself to be vulnerable. Though we have all been hurt in the past, that is no reason to shut yourself off from the world of love. Keep your expectations in check, and remember that not every relationship is the same, and not every person is the same. Making yourself vulnerable to the pain of loss, also opens up the window for the joy of love.
-
Step 5
Keep your hopes high. Instead of needling, or picking apart someone's flaws, check out their good qualities. Let the good outweigh the bad. No one is perfect, including you, but falling in love is more about letting yourself get swept away with feeling, and not trying to reign it in.
-
Step 6
Enjoy yourself. If you can sit back and have fun with someone, then the love may follow. It is when you step back and ponder the relationship, or the situation, too much that you wind up talking yourself out of love.
