Ten
Compelling, Bottom-Line Questions to Answer
before you launch your search for the love of
your life
by Jennifer Wright
Looking
for a partner or love of our life, can be
exciting, challenging and extremely frustrating.
If you are truly serious, time spent on yourself,
answering the following questions, can lower the
risk of frustration and raise the chances of
success.
1.
Who are you?
Does question excite you, scare
you? Most people have never really taken the
time to answer this fully. The best way to
answer this is your own self-reflection and
input from those who know you best. Ask you
close friends to help. The importance, of
course, is communicating who you are,
separate from what you do, to your potential
partners.
2.
What are your values?
This question may seem quite
simple, but do not let it go undiscovered.
Values come strongly from our families but
are refined/changed based on our life
experiences. Know your top 5.
3.
What do you want from a relationship?
Many singles are busy people and
have established themselves as independent
and self-sufficient. Being clear on what you
want allows you to make better decisions. In
otherwords, what could be better in your life
if you had a partner.
4.
What are the barriers you have encountered in the
past?
Most singles, with some
prompting, can discover and name what
obstacles that arose in the past? For example
intimacy too fast, lack of time for
relationship, lack of trust. Knowing these
issues can help you plan ahead and avoid
“being blind" to situations.
5.
Are you been living in ways that support your
desire?
Interestingly, many singles say
they want a relationship, yet their actions
don't support that. One way is looking at
your habits. How many day to day activities
bring you in contact with potential partners?
What can you do to change your routines? Are
you friendly, outgoing when you meet new
people?
