Are you single... and sick of it? By Evan Marc Katz
Are you single... and sick of it? By Evan Marc Katz Read more by searching: As a dating coach, I spend a lot of time trying to manage people’s expectations. Yes, we all want<b> love. </font></b>Yes, we all deserve it. And until we find it, it’s tempting to get frustrated — to lament the lack of good options, get jealous when our friends are in relationships, and feel hurt when someone we do like doesn’t call us back. Still, if you’re tired of the emotional roller coaster that comes with being single, there are ways to cope and come to terms with the fact that<b> love </font></b>really is a matter of luck and timing. Here are a few concepts to keep in mind until you find your soul mate. Playing the lottery: What are the odds? There are three things that can happen in every relationship: You dump someone, someone dumps you, or you live happily ever after. Since the last one happens really, really rarely, can anyone explain why we’re surprised and upset when potential relationships don’t work out? Imagine buying a lottery ticket and then losing sleep when your numbers don’t come up — that’s what we’re talking about here. I’m not saying you need to be callous and stoic over emotional issues like dating, I just think we need to get better at accepting that like it or not, things often (maybe even usually) don’t work out. |
