Don’t play hard to get
Playing hard to get makes it hard to find Mr. /Ms. Right. You
need not pretend to be busy when asked out on a date; neither should you feign
nonchalance when you really desire that person asking you out. There is a
chance that when you change gear, it can be someone who will make you unhappy.

Forget stereotypes
Not all men fear commitment and not every woman is needy. A
large percentage of singles is anxious and seek closeness but worries about love
not being reciprocated. People who push
others away or have a preconceived idea about intimacy are likely to end up
single.

Don’t hold on to the past
Holding on to an ex or a failed relationship makes it hard
to find a new one. This way, you push others away and compare every new person you meet
with your ex. Why not let go?

Make up your mind
If you are in a relationship
but do not know what you want out of it, then you may be single for a long
time. Have a mind of your own and take the responsibility of making your own
decisions in your relationship. Be clear and certain about what you want and
set out to get it.

Be flexible
Already, you have a picture of who your ideal mate should
be. Be flexible in your choice, and realistic; you can never get a perfect
partner. No one is. Or do
you want a relationship like that of the movies? Then, it might take a very
long time. Getting stuck on finding all the qualities in your ‘what-I-want’
list is a faster way of remaining single.

Be careful with ‘e-romance’
Online romances may meet some of your attachment needs, but
not in a real way. Meet new prospects and stick more realistic ways of meeting
people.

Be bold and feel secure
Some people avoid committed relationships because they worry
they will become dependent on their mate, or break up rather too soon. It may
be one fear or another. The trick is to boldly find someone and work at it.

Believe in yourself
Some
people think they simply are not worthy of meeting other people until they lose
weight, amass a certain amount of money or achieve something. The key to
overcome this problem is to believe in oneself and love oneself the way one is.

Don’t be a flirt
Serious people who want to be engaged in
serious relationships do not play around; No
one wants to date someone who is known for hopping into every available bed.

Change your work schedules
If you work late nights and on weekends, some singles who are searching for mates would not think of you as good
material. More importantly, not having
the same schedule could be a huge strain on a relationship. It may not be easy
to give up your passion or change career for someone, but it could be an expressway
to being single.
