1

Are You Ready to Be in a Relationship?

This is one of the most important things that you should know about yourself before looking for a significant other. A lot of people jump into relationships without being prepared for the responsibility that comes from being in a relationship; they just get caught up in the excitement of dating and then end up hurting innocent people. Just take a look inside and see if you are emotionally ready for a relationship, then go and look for Mr. Right.

2

You Need to Know Yourself

Before starting a romantic relationship, you need to know yourself both emotionally and sexually. If you are not able to understand yourself or your needs, then you shouldn’t expect someone else to come and make you happy. Reflect on your feelings, observe and label your emotional reactions and just try to get to know yourself better.

3

What do You Expect from Your Significant Other?

What are you looking for in a partner? Someone who can understand you, who can offer you a shoulder to lean on or someone who is adventurous and daring and with whom you can do exciting things? Try not to have unrealistic expectations though, because no one is perfect and neither are you, so try not to expect too much from your partner.

4

Is There Any Baggage That Can Prevent You from Being in a Real Relationship?

Before looking for a man, you should ask yourself if there is any emotional baggage from your past that can prevent you from being in a real relationship. This baggage can really harm your new relationship, so try not to have any unresolved issues if you're looking for a new partner; otherwise you might sabotage your own happiness.

5

Do You Know What Your Goals Are?

Have you figured out what your goals in life are? If not yet, don’t worry; there is still time. But when it comes to relationships, it’s good to align your goals and your objectives with your partner's because you should grow together and you should inspire and motivate each other to work hard to fulfill all your dreams.

Put Yourself in New Situations

If you are looking for your significant other then you should try to put yourself in a lot of new situations. How else could you ever meet him? In order to find the right partner, you should work alone on your self-improvement and try to develop a greater emotional awareness. Meet new people, take a new hobby and just have fun.

7

Try to Become the Best Version of You

In order to find that perfect partner with whom you can spend the rest of your life, you should first try to be that perfect partner that somebody else is looking for. Work on improving yourself and become the best version of you. Take care of yourself, eat right, sleep well and exercise. Learn to love and accept yourself just the way you are with all your flaws and qualities and strive to be the best in everything you do.

If you haven’t met Mr. Right yet, don’t be alarmed, you will meet him when the time is right and when you're ready for a new relationship. What other things should a woman know about herself before looking for a man? Please share your thoughts with us in the comments section!

I'm currently talking to a guy I really like but I'm very self cautious about my body...and everything about myself actually. I know I have to love myself in order for someone else to love me. But I just don't like my flaws :( I definitely need to learn to love myself and all my flaws.

Great article. I decided this year to focus on myself, I never had a boyfriend but I have been close to some guys and I got my heart broken. So, I wanted to focus to become a better me and when the right guy comes around he will come at the right time. I'm done searching and I am focus on getting my MA. So go out there and become a better you.

So true! Very good!
