Mistakes Women Make While Seeking Partner

It is fine to be head over heels in love with someone. But listening to your brain is far more important when you are seeking a partner for yourself. When it comes to love, even the smartest woman makes some terrible mistakes which can make her repent for life.

It is true that when cupid strikes, you cannot help it. We all act stupid sometimes when we like someone very much. But it is important that you be prepared for certain things while you are dating. It is good to give him what he wants but not all the time. Dating is a tricky job in which you need to use both your brain and your heart. While you need to be sensitive in certain matters, you also need to be headstrong in others.

Women, mostly, tend to think from the heart in the matters of love. Due to this, they make certain mistakes which they should have avoided.

Let us have a look at the common mistakes which women make while seeking partner:

Dwelling In The Past

Dwelling In The Past

Most women cannot forget their past relationships. They may start dating someone else just for the sake of moving on. But they keep thinking about the past which makes it impossible for them to concentrate on the present relationship. So, first ask yourself, whether you are ready for a new relationship or you are just there to avoid loneliness.

Intimacy In The First Date

Intimacy In The First Date

To be frank, if you are looking for a long term relationship then don't end up sleeping with the guy on your first date itself. Yes, men definitely enjoy sex, but if you want to be his girl or life, then just be a good girl. It does not mean that you cannot kiss him but make sure that you stop at that.

Unrealistic Expectations

Unrealistic Expectations

Let's face it, you cannot change the nature of men. You cannot expect him to be the perfect man. Every guy you meet will have some or the other flaw. Your love is not a checklist that your guy has to meet all your requirements. When you find a good guy, give him a chance. Chances are that he will be the best person for you in spite of all his flaws.

Faking

Faking

It is very important that you be yourself when seeking love. If you are a loud girl who enjoys partying, be that. If you are a girl who enjoys sitting in a corner and read, then be that. Don't pretend to be what you are not. You may fake and get his attention now. But later when he knows about the real you, he may not like it and you cannot fake it forever.

Being Always Available

Being Always Available

Being too available all the time is a total turn off. You are not his puppy, so stop acting like one. Don't go running to him every time he calls up. Most importantly, do not ditch your friends for him. If you have plans with your friends then carry on with it. He will also have to understand that you have your priorities.

A Dating Pattern

A Dating Pattern

There may have been a lot of reasons why your past relationships did not work. Take time to find out what the reasons were. Perhaps you had acted too needy or you may have had commitment issues. So, find out the pattern and what exactly went wrong. Try to avoid those same mistakes in your new relationship.
