Never Settle for a Good Guy

Everyone gets fed up with flirting, dating, evaluating potential partners and looking for the perfect knight in shiny armor.

The romance game suddenly loses its appeal and we are ready to settle for an acceptable option... simply because it seems that all the good guys are taken, all the happy couples have already been formed and the rest of the people should settle for the lesser evil.

Slow down. Stop yourself before making a mistake that you will regret for the rest of your life.

What is wrong with being single and still searching? Ah, right, it is socially unacceptable. Society seems to be exhibiting this massive intolerance towards singles, especially towards singe women. And the power of the social disapproval could sometimes be bone-crushing. What is the other option?

You meet a man. There are no sparks, no butterflies in the stomach, no love at first sight, sounds of wedding bells and happily ever after. He is just a regular man. He is nice. He apparently likes you. The passion is missing, the sex is average. You calm yourself that a relationship is much more than exceptional sex. It should be based on trust and respect.

One year later you foolishly agree to marry him. You are already bored but your biological clock is ticking.

When older and looking back, you will greatly regret that move. Spending your entire life based on a compromise will leave you empty. And wasting your best years on a relationship that was destined to die before it even started will get you feeling as if you cheated on your own self.

There is nothing wrong with a woman being strong, independent and still searching for the perfect match. Asking for too much is not wrong, after all this is your own life and happiness we are talking about. Just be careful and avoid another trap - being way too picky and missing the great chances in your life.
