If you are single and your goal is only romantic love, you must learn to never settle for less than you desire. When a person has a goal, if they allow themselves to accept less than what they are looking for, they will undoubtedly never reach their goal. So many people wonder why their lives have not gone they way they had hoped, they may wonder why they do not have the job they wish for or why they are in a relationship that does not offer all they wish for. The answer is quite simple: along the way, they came into circumstances and they had a choice. They could choose between taking that job, entering into that relationship or leaving a bad relationship or they could have said “pass” and continued toward their goal. Those who decided on something less than desired, settled. They “settled” on something that did not meet their standards, their morals or their dreams. Then, once their life moves along, they wonder why they are unhappy.

If your goal is only romantic love, to obtain this is easier than you think. Never accept anything that does not meet your standards of what only romantic love is. If you meet someone who does not have those romantic qualities, your word should be, “Next!” If you are in a relationship and the other person slowly stops showing you romantic gestures, “Next!”

In order for anyone to achieve what they desire, they must first make their goal clear. If you are looking for only romantic love, take out a pen and paper and write down what that means to you. Does it mean the other person will call you once a day, just to say hello? Will they leave surprises for you to find? Love notes? Send flowers? Make a list and decide that a person must have at least 80% of the qualities that are on your list. Just as if you were food shopping and your list called for a steak, if you felt hungry, would you stop at the hamburger and put it in your cart, ignoring the steak that you originally wanted?

Once your goal is defined, find only romantic love, it is then that you must have the proper tools to meet your goal. What will your tools be to find only romantic love? Your tools are your personality, your charm, your outlook, your attitude, you openness, your wisdom to know who is right for you and who is wrong, your ability to seek out others-through online dating, speed dating or other means, and other elements that you feel you have that will allow you to find someone to provide only romantic love.

Now that you have your goals and your tools, all you need is to decide when and how to use each tool you have. When you meet some, think of the tools at your disposable and utilize them. When you are sitting home alone and dreaming of finding only romantic love, stop dreaming, think about what tools you have and utilize them to find your significant other.

As a final note, never settle. It is far better to be alone for a while, even for a year or two, then to be in a relationship that is not fulfilling. When you allow yourself to be in a relationship that is not what you dream of, you limit yourself. Unless you cheat on the other person, you will not have the opportunity to find your relationship of only romantic love. It is never advised to cheat; any potential partner will have difficulty trusting you in your new relationship. Pride in your goals, pride in your tools, pride in yourself; you can find only romantic love.
