So make sure you love yourself before you put yourself out there.

3. Like Attracts Like

If you are not happy with the type of people you are attracting into your dating life, then look at the mirror because you are attracting this person.

No, this does not necessarily mean your looks.

But it’s more so your energy and who you are as a person.

Whatever you want to attract, you also need to have those qualities in some way.

They may not be the exact same qualities, but your version of them.

So make yourself a better person and you will attract a better person.

4. Be Ready To Learn & Grow

Yes, a relationship can be filled with magic and great sex.

But it is also a lot of hard work.

You have to be ready to learn about yourself, communication, conflict resolution, sharing, giving, and so much more.

So if you want to be in a relationship, be ready to learn.

5. Practice Gratitude

A relationship is a day in and day out practice. You need to be in a positive mindset where you are grateful to be with this person.
