1. Don’t Be Looking for Him
This might sound like a cliché, but it is one of the tips on meeting Mr. Right that actually really, truly works! I find that when I am looking for a relationship, I never seem to find one. However, when I’m focusing on myself, a guy just happens to appear. When we start looking for a man, we become desperate and end up with someone that isn’t good for us and maybe even a guy we don’t actually want... and certainly not Mr. Right!
2. Be the Person That You Would Go out with
Be the person that you like, and other people will like you too. If you are happy that reflects, so people around you will be happy and then you will attract a happy Mr. Right. But if you are miserable, and not pleasant to be around, you will only find a miserable guy,if any.
Frequently asked questions
3. What do You Want?
Make sure you know what you want in a man, and in your life in general. If you get into a relationship not knowing what you want, emotions and feelings will get involved and hurt. So at the beginning of a relationship don’t hide what you want; make it clear! You may be thinking that you don’t know what you want, so why not go on a few dates? See what it is that you like and what you don’t. It’s all about experimenting, whatever age you are!
4. You Might Not Be Right
Saying that, you might not know what it is that you want until you find it. Be open to adaptation, but don’t lose or change who you are in the process. Find someone who doesn’t want to change you, because then you will know that they really do love you.
5. You Won’t Find Him in a Club
Many of my friends get caught up on guys that they meet in a club. The likelihood of you ending up with this guy is very slim. In a club generally guys are only after one thing, and it's not a long-term or serious relationship.
6. You Will Get Heartbroken
Don’t expect the first guy you meet to be the one. We all need to make mistakes in order to find out what it is we want. Even if you have found a guy, we all change as we get older. I know that ex-boyfriends that I have had would never fit into my life now. Everything happens for a reason.
7. But You Will Find Him
Even though there are many obstacles, you will find your Mr. Right. There are many people in the world, so why not get out there and see what you find? The next guy you meet might be Mr. Right!
As they say, patience is a virtue, and unfortunately Mr. Right isn’t going to just walk through the door into your life. So, have fun dating in the meantime and you may stumble across him. Or if you've already found him, how did you meet Mr. Right?

Kimberley: Unfortunately, my mr right is called Ashton Irwin and belongs in a band called 5 Seconds Of Summer. Sucks, right? Well it's better than being caught up on teenage boys at school.
