You’ve been single for a while now and can’t seem to find the right man for you.

It’s not that men haven’t hit on you or that you haven’t been on any dates – you have but the problem comes in when things tend to fizzle out after the first date.

It would be ignorant of me to not mention that there are women that are perfectly happy being single but this is for those ones looking for a companion.

Yes, there is the fact that the guy may have been a douche bag and there were no sparks between the two of you but what about the ones that you did have a connection with and they felt the same way. How come it didn’t work out?

Here are 6 possible reasons why.

1.You are too independent

Here me out first. They is absolutely nothing wrong with being independent but sometimes it can come out to be overwhelming for a guy.

You keep telling him how you don’t need a man to help you carry groceries for example but forgetting that he is aware that you may not need the help but wants to help.

Steve Harvey couldn’t have said it better – chivalry is not dead, it’s just no longer required.

2.You overthink everything that he says

He tells you you’re beautiful, you tell him he’s lying. He tells you how he’d like to get to know you better and you ask him how many women he’s told that too.

Honey, relax a bit and allow him to compliment you. If it turns out that he’s just saying it for the sake of saying it then you can ditch him but don’t be quick to dismiss him so quickly and end up passing off on a great thing.

3.You come off desperate

Yes, you haven’t been in a serious relationship in five years. No need to keep repeating it over and over again. Just go with the flow and if things work out you can reveal that to him later on.

4.You are always negative

You don’t like doing this or you hate how a certain celebrity constantly posts on social media. You hate eating this and that – whoosh.

It’s too much negativity all at once.

5.You rush things

Don’t expect to get five year relationship benefits in a 2 month relationship. Calm down and stop rushing things.

6.You turn down every effort he makes to be with you

There’s a clear difference between playing hard to get and completely blowing a guy off. If this is a guy you like, you may want to consider avoiding doing the latter. Take him up on his offer and go have lunch with him.
