Suggestion for People Seeking Love

Suggestion for People Seeking Love
An opportunity to meet and get acquainted is almost a prerequisite for the development of a romantic relationship.

Although platonic love relationships do develop by means of letter, telephone and more recently electronic mail and can be extremely exciting and rewarding as such, most people need to meet in person before they allow themselves to fall in love.

And, when people live, work, or play in close proximity, their likelihood of meeting (and of a romantic spark getting ignited) increases.

But, meeting once is not enough. Repeated exposure is yet another requirement for a romantic spark to turn into the steady flame of a love relationship.

Meeting repeatedly, however does not guarantee love. If the first impression is negative, it is best to cut contact, let the first impression dissipate, and then give the relationship another chance.

In such a case, repeated exposure will not change the initial dislike or disdain into love but will most likely increase them.

The conclusion for people who are seeking romantic love is obvious. Try to arrange your life in such a way you have many varied opportunities to meet regularly people through your work, place of residence, or recreational activities who are likely candidates for a romantic relationship attachment.

Being involved in activities you love or could love is important not only because such activities are the most likely meeting grounds for people who are kindred spirits (and what group offers a better pool of candidates for a romantic relationship?) but also especially because such activities guarantee living more genuinely and therefore more happily.

When seeking candidates for a romantic, the encounters should offer not one-shot opportunities, the type that take place on a busy street or in a crowded bar but instead opportunities for meeting repeatedly and spending time together.

The meetings should either take a while – such as a spiritual retreat, a ski vacation, or mountain biking trip – or recur regularly as dally encounters at the cafeteria at work, next to the elevator or the mailboxes at the apartment during a year long class or a regularly scheduled athletic activity, so long as they offer repeated encounter bid deepening acquaintance.
