Okay, you really and surely want to be in a relationship but find yourself eating out alone? You know you are far better than anyone of them, yet they all have a boyfriend unlike you. You wouldn't have realised it, but for all you know you could be engaging in a little self-sabotage when it comes to finding your special someone . You could be giving the impression , "I'm not interested," when you actually are.. So, here's how you could reach the "I'm taken" status.
You're unconsciously ignoring your relationship needs
Many people have a lot to do yet they are open to relationships and are more than willing to make space for one. Some tell-tale signs: Every time someone extends an invitation your some unfinished project on your desk convinces you to say, "Not tonight, but once my workload lightens up, I will join you. Or, you find yourself saying things like, "I'll start really looking for someone once I get my promotion/finances in order" (which, alas, may not be any time soon).
Solution:
You need to have an honest chat with yourself: Do you really want a romantic relationship in your life right now? If yes, make at least one step toward carving out some space for it. Go out and meet friends, sign into an online dating. And don't let a few bad dates drive you back to your workaholic ways—once you have a good one and see what you've been missing, you'll understand what all the hubbub is about.
You don't think before you speak
Agreed, in today's high-paced life you can't afford to waste time thinking whether the person is right for you or not. So, you give it three seconds to decide ! Like Leena Bajaj, a young executive with a private bank confesses, "It takes me just five seconds to decide if I want to have more conversation with a guy or not." But the fact is most of us aren't great at making a killer first impression . "It sure could explain why I haven't had a date in a year," Leena continues. "I don't give men a chance to show me who they are. A little patience would probably help."
