However, according to Hendrix, this isnt necessarily a bad thing.

Unfortunately, many men arent willing to hang in there and give it a chance when things get tough.

Youre afraid to be vulnerable

Falling in love is scary.

You might end up getting hurt.

But if youre not willing to take that chance, youll never get what you want.

You cant keep a wall up around your heart and expect to connect with someone in a meaningful way.

Are you looking for someone who values honesty above all else and never even tells a white lie?

If you dont know what you want, you wont get it.

So write it down and be clear about your goals for a relationship.

Otherwise, youll keep ending up unhappy, and you may not even know why.
