11 Reasons Why You Are Still Single
Are you single despite wanting to be in the company of a loving boyfriend? Do you find yourself to be the odd one out in your circle of friends just because you are single? Check out the reasons why this could be happening to you.
1. Expecting too much perfection in a man
One of the reasons you may still be single is because you are expecting your Mr. Right to be ideal. You want a man who has all the perfect qualities and you are waiting for such a person to arrive in your life one fine day.
2. High career focus
Too much focus on your career and a burning ambition to achieve your dreams may be keeping you from dating and meeting the right man. Finding absolutely no time in the week to join your friends for a drink or socialize with anyone may have kept you single all this while.
3. High family orientation
Mom, dad, brother, sister, aunt, uncle, granny, grandpa and your family dog – if these characters dominate your life, chances are that you would have no time left to meet new people or date someone. You could be single because you are too attached to your family and can’t let go of them.
4. Multiple breakups in the past creating a mind block
If you have been through many failed relationships in the past, it is likely that you may have been through a lot of emotional trauma. Your mind may have fallen in the habit of blocking any possible romantic sparks between you and another man, because of which you are still single.
5. You have witnessed hurting friends
Seeing close friends getting hurt in their relationships can make you averse of being in a relationship yourself. Because of your hurting friends, you may have subconsciously decided that you don’t want to inflict pain and agony on yourself by being in a relationship. This could be one of the reasons why you want to stay away from romance and bask in your singlehood.
6. Waiting for the right time
There’s always something or the other that is lined up in life. After school, there is college, then university, then an internship, then a full time job and then a senior position. You may be constantly postponing being in a relationship because you think that life has other important things to offer you and relationships can wait.
