While some people can easily move from relationship to relationship, there are some of us who haven’t been in a relationship for a long time and are perpetually single.
In case you’re one of the single ones and you’re wondering why, we’ve compiled some of the reasons below. This list can help you stop doubting yourself and start looking for a stable relationship.
1. You’re too much of a perfectionist.
In some situations, people are perfectionistic with their standards when looking for a partner. If there’s a flaw or the person doesn’t match their list exactly, they reject the idea of a relationship with them.
This single person needs to realize that nobody is perfect, and we rarely find anyone who meets our perfect standards.
They need to try meeting different types of people with a more open mind. This person might also benefit from some self reflection to learn what his or her imperfections are.
2. You have low self-esteem.
This single individual does not feel good about him/herself and can not fully open up to the kind of complete sharing that is necessary for a romantic relationship. Therapy is advised for them to feel good about themselves and to trust their own feelings before seeking love.
Until this person learns to live him or herself, they won’t find someone to love them and they won’t trust that they can fully love anyone else.
3. You’re afraid of what commitment will mean.
This single individual enjoys dating and enjoys the almost endless variety of people they can meet.
Deep down, they are likely afraid of giving up the next good person that they might meet. Even when they find someone who might make an awesome partner, they start to think, “But what about the next person I meet?”
This forever-single needs to learn that there probably is not one perfect soul mate for anyone; that each of us probably has multiple soul mates. We just need to find one of them and commit to receiving the almost unending benefits that a good healthy relationship can bring.
4. You think changing yourself will help you fit in.
This is a method that doesn’t have any advantages and is probably one of the main reasons why you’re single. If you’re faking it, you can’t enjoy a committed relationship.
And, even if you manage to pretend for long enough to become engaged or even married, it is highly unlikely that this will help for a long, satisfying marriage. Instead, this fake personality will likely lead to a speedy divorce.
5. You’re simply too uninteresting.
If you don’t don’t have hobbies or interests or things that you’re passionate about, no one will find you interesting enough to share life with. However, of the five, this is the easiest to fix. Go out and have fun! Enjoy life and try different things.
LAST LOVE TIP
If you’re ready for a relationship, you’ll just have to put yourself and you’ll meet someone. Find something you love doing. The chances are, while you are doing that thing you love, you will find someone else also doing the same thing, and soon, you might love doing it together.
Being single is not a bad thing, but if you’re single because of any of these reasons, then you’ll need to deal with the personal issues.
