Find Love And Keep IT

A checklist for a successful relationship.

Difficulty: Moderately Challenging
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Positive attitude
  • confidence
  • patience
  1. Step 1

    The key to finding a good mate and keeping him or her is simple..it starts with you! First things first,you must be confident and your self esteem has to be on point. Let me explain. In order to love anyone you have to truly love yourself. You must be secure in yourself as a person and truly love who you are.

  2. Step 2

    Confidence is key because someone who is not confident definately doesn't want someone who is. You must set standards for yourself and make a list of things that you require in a relationship. If you are a single parent it is very important that you keep your dating and family life seperate. You don't want to introduce your children to someone so quickly and they get attached to that person and a few months later it doesn't work out and the children are affected by that. Now that we've gotten that out the way let's get to the fun part!

  3. Step 3

    When you meet someone and began dating try to do things that are fun and interesting instead of sitting around the house looking at each other. You want to avoid moving to fast especially physically because it is important to spend time talking and actually getting to know each other. Cook dinner together,go to movies or even walks in the park are intimate moments that are great. Be yourself one hundred percent and don't settle for things that are inappropiate to you. Remember that you want to be treated with respect from day one and if disrespected you MUST NIP IT IN THE BUD FROM DAY ONE! It is very easy to fall into a trap of a bad relationship if you allow a person to get away with treating any kind of way..always remember that a person can't do anything to you unless you let them...

Tips & Warnings
  • Dating can be fun but it can also be frustrating. You must be patient and just have fun. If you are not finding people that spark your intrest,take a break and concentrate on you. It doesn't mean that you are destined to be lonely it just means that what you are looking for hasn't crossed your path yet. Take it from me a single parent,self employed and happy with life. It took me years to find the ONE but believe me it was well worth the wait and I adore this person. It almost seems like all the B S that I went through down through the years was worth me finding this one person. So get your game face on and have fun!!!
  • Be yourself or time will tell who you really are!
  • Be honest and respectful or a person will prey on your weaknesses
