Attracting a MateAttracting a mate is easiest when you begin with attracting yourself… When I was 18, my high school sweetheart broke up with me. Devastated was an understatement. We had been together for two-and-a-half years and he was my first boyfriend. We had said, “I love you,” during our relationship, but from the depths of my pain, I believe it was more like, “I need you.”
Attracting a mate begins with having enough love within yourself to be able to give love out first. The energy of self-confidence, self-acceptance, and self-love will draw loving people into your life. How do you attract a mate? Start with stopping the hunt for love. The search for love is a search out of need. Focus instead on challenging yourself to try new things, explore your interests or take on new hobbies. Enjoy the company of your friends and most especially, the company of yourself. Get to a place where you can give love freely, where you no longer feel the need to be with someone. Once you have someone special in your life and you have created a relationship out of a true space of love, maintaining that balance still takes personal development work. When we learn to depend on someone, we do lose a piece of ourselves. Many relationships slip from a space of appreciation and wonder to need and frustration. Again, the remedy comes from giving love first. An outpouring of gratitude and love can reestablish the foundation on which harmony is built. Love is a mirror…what you see is what you give.
