Q: I have been doing the on line dating thing for 6 months now. I really, really want a long lasting relationship but have not connected with anyone I would consider an acceptable candidate. How long do I have to search? Am I doing something wrong?

A: What if you were doing something right? Sometimes you just have to kiss many frogs until the “right” he or she shows up. On line dating is just that...a forum for you to meet with many potential partners...there is no time limit on when you will connect with your perfect partner. Could you view this kind of dating as a an adventure...full of fun, suspense and joy. After all, you are looking for a playmate so why not entertain yourself with all the people you meet...through email or in person...enjoy them for their unique personalities, quirks, and habits. When you treat this search as a game, it becomes exciting as you move closer toward the ideal one. If you were shopping for that ideal home or expensive car, you would put your focus into the shopping spree, wouldn’t you? Then apply the same principles for on line dating and watch the perfect one show up when you least expect it. You don’t have to settle. Simply allow the journey and enjoy it.
