Dating and finding a relationship is not always easy...
but there are certain things you can do that will almost guarantee to ruin a potential relationship.

1. Being needy: You might find someone, alright, but not the person you want.
   Most likely you'll attract a control freak while running off any suitable partners.
   Until you begin resolving the issues that make you so clingy and needy, it's best to hold off on looking for love.
   
2. Controlling: This is the flip side, where you are domineering..
   and manipulating the other person.
   This is a sure fire way to get any decent person running for the hills.
   
3. Focus mainly on yourself: Are you here for a relationship, or just to talk about yourself? Ouch! Sorry, I know that was harsh, but seriously, you won't make anyone feel special if you can't show interest in them.
   
4. Don't listen: If you always monopolize the conversations, you're letting people know that you have more interest in yourself than trying to get to know them.
   Soon enough, you will find yourself alone with no one enjoying your company..
   much less no one motivated to explore a relationship with you.
   
5. Forget your manners: Simple, common courtesy goes a long way.
   Show the other person kindness and respect.
   Watch how you eat..
   don't let the door slam in their face.
   And personally, I believe, if you're a guy, open the door for her!

Pay attention to these 5 key areas above.
See if being aware of the other person..
and showing them you are truly interested in them, doesn't result in you finding a partner that will enhance and bring joy to your life.
