We all want to have more love in our lives. Finding true love is an amazing experience and one many people search out for many years. For most, our first loves aren’t the ones we end up with *though for a lucky few they are*, so we have to go through the experience of loving, losing, and then loving again before we find that forever person. Even if it feels like to know how to find true love is out of your reach, these 10 tips will lead you on the right path.
While it might take us a few attempts to get it right, to learn from our past experience of love to understand what we want and need in a relationship, it’s not to say that we should invalidate our past loves. They helped us learn lessons and become wiser. Doing so, however painful, ultimately helps us find the true love we search for.
# Know when to let it go
If you are truly dedicated to finding true love, it’s a good idea to actually understand what it isn’t. If you cling onto every person with potential, if you stay in relationships that deep down you know aren’t working, if you keep brushing problems under the carpet and refuse to acknowledge how you really feel, you only end up unhappy.
Or ending things further down the line, which wastes everyone’s precious time. That’s not to say that love and relationships aren’t hard work sometimes, but knowing when to let go is important.
# Be sociable
The more sociable you are, the more people you’ll meet. If you sit at home on your sofa waiting for some princess or prince charming to knock at your door you could be waiting for a long time. So get out there and start meeting new people.
# Don’t dismiss people straight awayLove can be found in mysterious places
If you are too closed to people you might actually miss someone that’s perfect for you. Give people second chances and the benefit of the doubt sometimes, you might end up falling for someone you thought you didn’t even like!
# Be open minded
Keeping an open mind will open yourself up to the possibility of finding true love. Try new things, have interesting experiences, and don’t judge people. The more open minded you are the better.
# Don’t have a type
If you only go for dark haired, tall, rich guys, you are cutting out so many people without even giving them a chance. Try to steer clear of types and open your eyes to the possibility of anyone being your one true love.
# Look at friends in a new way
Sometimes true love is right on your doorstep and you don’t even realize it. Look at your friendship group a bit more closely. Is there anyone there who actually could be something more to you?
# Try online dating
There used to be a huge stigma around online dating, but nowadays that’s where you’re likely to find most single people. Online dating makes it so easy to see who is out there, so it’s worth doing if you are brave enough.
# Learn from past mistakes
Learning from your past mistakes can really help you find love in the future. Each and every relationship you have should help you learn and grow. Try to remember what went right and what you wish you had done differently. Then, use these lessons to help make your future relationships and searches for love more successful!
# Believe that someone is out there for you
Sometimes it can feel as though you have been waiting forever to find love. However, keep believing there is someone out there for you. If you give up you might never meet them!
# Stay positive
Keep positive about finding love and the whole dating game. The more obsessive and miserable you get the more you are likely to close yourself off from people.
