Mr. Perfect is not just going to show up on your doorstep and take you away to a life of happiness. The sooner you realize this sad but true fact, the sooner you can get on with finding the one that is perfect for you. Prince Charming, riding on a white stallion, lost his way or found Princess Charming and got married on his way to your castle. Get over it and get on with it. You are going to have to do some work to find Mr. Right. The fairy tale trap is very easy to fall into and can cause you to turn into a spinster before you know it. If you think happiness is just going to fall into your lap then you need a reality check.
Whether you go out and look for men in bars you can find the man for you. You are not going to find him sitting on your couch eating bon-bons. You are going to have to put in some effort. Get dressed up and get out there. Go out more often, join things, and stop being a hermit. Engage with people, meet new people, and enjoy your life. Think about how many great men you could have missed out on sitting at home.
If you don’t want to go out and find someone then there are some alternatives. Do you have a computer with access to the internet? Find an online dating site that fits your needs. Write a great profile and post a flattering picture. Start contacting eligible men on the site. Mr. Right for you could be waiting on the other side of that screen. Stop waiting for things to happen and make them happen yourself.
