Or Am I just not cut out for a relationship? \u00a0And Why is it taking so long?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.simplypsychology.org\/Erik-Erikson.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The famous psychologist Erik Erikson maintained that one\u2019s personality develops through eight predictable stages<\/a>, each involving a psychosocial crisis. Successful completion of each stage leads to the development of a healthy personality and basic virtues.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><a href=\"https:\/\/motivatedtomarry.com\/stage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/blog-will-i-ever-meet-someone.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-3208 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/motivatedtomarry.com\/stage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/blog-will-i-ever-meet-someone.jpg\" alt=\"Woman sitting by herself wondering, 'Will I ever meet someone?'\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Why is this relevant to the search for love, especially for <a href=\"https:\/\/motivatedtomarry.com\/stage\/do-you-know-if-your-partner-is-marriage-minded-or-not\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">marriage-minded people<\/a>?<\/p>\n<p>When you start asking yourself (and the universe), \u201cWill I ever meet someone?\u201d you\u2019re already in a state of doubt. More importantly, you\u2019re placing your destiny outside yourself. \u201cMeeting someone\u201d becomes a function of chance, luck, or even what the universe decides to hand out only to \u201cthe chosen.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>Instead of despairing that you may never meet someone, perhaps try to think instead about self-fulfillment. And by self-fulfillment I don\u2019t mean getting and doing everything you want. I mean <em>becoming <\/em>who and what you are meant to be.<\/h2>\n<p>If you use Erikson\u2019s stages as a point of reference, for example, where do you see room for improvement? Were there any stages in your early development that you didn\u2019t complete successfully? What \u201cvirtues\u201d &#8212; as he calls the strengths developed with each stage &#8212; did you miss out on? And what strengths would make you more prepared for love and intimacy going forward?<\/p>\n<p>Stage 5, for example, is \u201cIdentity and Role Confusion,\u201d and occurs during adolescence. It\u2019s during this time that questions of <em>\u201cWho am I? And what is my purpose?\u201d<\/em> arise. Sexual identity and body image are important parts of this stage. This focus on personal identity &#8212; <em>\u201cWhat do I believe and stand for? How do I feel about myself?\u201d<\/em> &#8212; is essential to the development of fidelity.<\/p>\n<p>In the next stage, \u201cIntimacy vs. Isolation,\u201d relationship development becomes the focus. And this is where you may find yourself if you\u2019re marriage-minded and wondering, \u201cWill I ever meet someone?\u201d This is the time during which you develop the ability to truly love.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s important to remind yourself that it\u2019s never too late for love. You\u2019re not \u201ctoo old,\u201d regardless of what you see your friends doing with their lives. No matter your age, there\u2019s always an opportunity to grow in wisdom and clarity. And I recommend that this be your focus as you work toward finding lasting love.<\/p>\n<p>Too often people rush into the guise of love out of a yearning to feel completed. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=NpWAlvWNZj0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u201cYou complete me\u201d<\/a> may work as a movie line (from \u201cJerry McGuire\u201d), and yet, see this as a warning sign if this is what motivates your search for love.<\/p>\n<p>Think about it. If you are trying to find someone else to complete you, chances are that same person is trying to find someone else to complete him\/her too. And that\u2019s a lot of unspoken, unfair expectations placed upon people who didn\u2019t sign up to finish the jobs that other people started.<\/p>\n<p>Instead of going on a mad search for your \u201csoulmate,\u201d turn your search inward to your own soul. Instead of asking, \u201cWill I ever meet someone,\u201d ask, \u201cWho do I need to be in order to meet the person meant for me?\u201d And go searching for <em>yourself first<\/em>, before looking for your life partner.<\/p>\n<p>I know that can sound scary &#8212; as if you\u2019re signing up for a life alone. To the contrary, this is the best and only authentic way to prepare for true love and intimacy.<\/p>\n<h2>Love isn\u2019t a magic potion. It doesn\u2019t swoop in and \u201cfix\u201d what\u2019s broken, no matter how good it makes you feel in the beginning. Your relationship will be only as whole, and strong, as each of you is going into the relationship.<\/h2>\n<p>Chances are that you don\u2019t want to have to fill all the voids in another person\u2019s life. Sure, it can seem romantic to be wanted and needed all the time. But that feeling will quickly wane when you realize that you\u2019re really being asked to do someone else\u2019s work. And if you don\u2019t want to have to \u201ccomplete\u201d your partner, you can\u2019t expect your partner to \u201ccomplete\u201d you.<\/p>\n<p>So attend to those parts of yourself you\u2019ve ignored or left unhealed. Heal your past wounds, develop those skills that make for a good partner, and make sure you genuinely all parts accept all parts of yourself.<\/p>\n<p>Love your body, mind, spirit, gifts, what you value, and purpose in life. Become so committed to your self-awareness and self-fulfillment that you almost forget you\u2019re searching for love. Believe it or not, this will make you radiate a confidence that is incredibly attractive to others who have a similar commitment.<\/p>\n<p>When Deborah, a mid-30\u2019s pretty, yet introverted woman, sought coaching, she lacked the confidence and felt, \u201cWho would want me?\u201d.\u00a0 Through the coaching process, I steeped her in what she had to offer to a relationship and her unique gifts. Within 3 months of the coaching, she met her now-husband at a social event that I encouraged her to attend.\u00a0\u00a0 It was love at first sight!\u00a0 They became an exclusive couple a month later and got engaged within the year!<\/p>\n<h2>Communication is another thing you should always be thinking about if you\u2019re wondering, \u201cWill I ever meet someone.\u201d In one way or another, everything in a relationship comes down to communication.<\/h2>\n<p>Too many relationships break up or never get off the ground because the people in them have poor communication skills. They don\u2019t know how to voice their needs and wants, or are afraid to do so, or they make their partner responsible for their feelings. And often they have no idea how to resolve conflict in a healthy way.<\/p>\n<p>As a <a href=\"https:\/\/motivatedtomarry.com\/stage\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">dating and relationship coach<\/a>, I work with my clients to develop the whole person, not just his\/her dating life. It\u2019s not enough to simply \u201cfind dates\u201d for a person, especially if that person is marriage-minded. My goal is to help each person recognize, acknowledge and develop his\/her best self. That way I can lead that client to the best possible matches&#8230;and ultimately the best possible relationship.<\/p>\n<p>Instead of wondering, \u201cWill I ever meet someone?\u201d think about what you need to do to live your most authentic life. Be true to yourself. Live your life as you want to live it, embracing all the wonderful parts of yourself that desire to be loved and accepted.<\/p>\n<p>You hear it all the time, I know&#8230;but you really do need to love yourself before anyone else can love you.<\/p>\n<h3>PS: If you\u2019re ready to stop spinning your wheels with online dating and finally find your true love, then\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.mtmonlinedatingchecklist.com\/\">download my FREE online dating checklist<\/a>.
