“Love can cost a lot but not love always costs more, and those who fear love often find the need for love the emptiness that takes away joy from life.” – Merle Shine
If you’ve given up on looking for love and feel like there’s no one out there for you, you’re not alone.

But that doesn’t have to be your reality. You can consciously change your attitude, change your attitude, and learn to find love. You can let go of the fear of getting hurt and stop spinning useless stories that hold you back.

5 suggestions that will help restore your faith in true love.
- Celebrate yourself and build your confidence.
Attempts to find love are often accompanied by thoughts or projections about who you think someone will love, rather than being your authentic self. You are loved. You have many natural qualities.
Can you see it yourself? Write a list of your positive qualities. If you’re not sure, ask friends or family what they like about you. Practice enjoying yourself. By doing this, you build self-confidence which is very attractive to others.
- Adopt a pet to understand unconditional love.
Whether you adopt a dog, cat, or parrot, these creatures teach lessons about unconditional love. They accept you for who you are and seek your attention – your love – whether you’re feeling fat, broken, tired, or something else.
“Our ideal companions are at least four feet tall.”
- Colette
They show you how to be present and content in every moment, no matter what. They reveal true love in a way that primes your brain to trigger “feel good” responses, which leads to a deeper awareness of love. They point you to the real (human) thing.
- Allow yourself to feel vulnerable.
Release all struggle. Surrendering to the flow of life brings you in line with the natural laws of nature and connects you with divine love.
When you get stuck in self-limiting beliefs, you become filled with tension that prevents you from receiving — or seeing — the love that is so easily accessible. Yoga, meditation, mindfulness, and qigong are all useful strategies for opening you to the true essence and energies of true love.

- Find a new hobby.
Many of those surveyed complained that they never met anyone new in their social circles. Why not expand those circles? Try a new sport, a new craft, or take an art or language class. Do something you’ve always wanted to do but didn’t make time for. Make it a priority.
“Your relationship with yourself sets the tone for every other relationship you have.”
You will benefit from learning something new and connecting with someone who has a similar interest in the process. This is what we call winning.
- Change your negative self-talk.
Recently, a young man posted 10 lines on Facebook chanting, “I will never find love.” It reinforces a belief that influences his behavior and becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. It releases negative “feelings” that contribute to being unwanted.
“Loving yourself starts with liking yourself, which starts with respecting yourself, which starts with thinking about yourself in positive ways.”
Notice your self-talk and if it’s self-critical, it’s time to change it. If an FB guy had said, “I’m going to find love,” he’d feel — and act — completely differently. Imagine your perfect mate coming toward you; Hold on to that vision and it will happen.
One final tip: Don’t set a time frame for contacting each other. The more you get rid of all restrictions, the easier the magic will become.
