If you were unhappy before the relationship, youll be unhappy in it.

Instead of feeling sorry for yourself about being single, work on your relationship with yourself.

Work on feeling your best and looking your best.

We want to be swept off our feet and taken over by this all-consuming feeling of euphoria and harmony.

Once you come to expect the behavior, you create a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Were all wired to look at the world in subjective ways.

you should probably be able to appreciate and acknowledge the goodness that is in you and in your relationship.

If you let your fears execute the show, you will set yourself up for sabotage.
