“The Internet is a big place where a lot of people can voice their opinions, and my mother chooses to pick fights with random people from all over the world who don’t have the nicest things to say about me.” - Chris Evans Before we dive into online dating specifically, I’d like to start with ten things we often overlook when it comes to love in general. 1. Despite all odds against, it truly is possible to grow, learn and change for the better. 2. We all want to be loved, respected and accepted for who we are. 3. In relationships, you get what you focus on, validate or reward. 4. We can’t rely on stereotypes. We are all wild and beautiful creatures, each vastly different and yet sometimes surprisingly similar. What doesn’t matter to one person, might matter a great deal to another. When it comes to relationships, we are seeking to understand the person we are with, not the generality of their entire gender. 5. Finding love is not about filling a whole in your heart. It is about offering yourself and your help to someone else, and accepting their help in return. 6. The fastest road to unhappiness is to be dishonest with yourself about who you are and what you truly want. The next quickest road is to be dishonest about that with your partner. 7. Appreciation is saying “I see you, I understand you and I am happy that you are there.” No relationship can survive without appreciation in abundance. 8. Emotional attraction is better than physical. And spiritual attraction is better than that. 9. At this very instant, you likely posses the skills and qualities you need to attract a quality partner. You may not know how to leverage them, however. And one can always learn more. 10. Relationship success is not about manipulating men or tricking them into liking you. It’s about finding someone you can be real with and who is real with you. It is about genuine partnership in life. One built on trust, teamwork, and love.
