Love is what makes the world go round, and it is what we all crave, in one form or another. When we are young we get love from our parents and siblings. As we grow older we start making friends and we learn to love them. When we become teenagers we start having love relationships with the opposite sex, and these relationships are normally a challenge for the rest of our lives!
In any relationship, the more good we do our partner and the more love we shower on them, the more “cash” we are likely to have in their “emotional bank account”. (Steven Covey goes into detail about one’s emotional bank account in his book “The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People”). If we have a lot of cash in someone’s emotional bank account and we only make occasional withdrawals (like sometimes treating them a bit unfairly), the bank account will remain relatively healthy. If we do something really dreadful to our partner, it amounts to a huge withdrawal, and the bank account may end up in the red! In a relationship, the trick is to maintain a healthy bank balance in both partners’ emotional bank accounts. In the Bible it states that love covers a multitude of sins. That is certainly true. If you know that your partner loves you and treats you well, you are likely to ignore minor things that he/she does wrong. This all adds up to a happy and healthy relationship.

Learn to enjoy your own company
We all dream of the day that we will have a special partner who will keep us company through thick and thin. We feel somehow that he or she will complete us, make us whole, and that we will never be lonely again.
That may be true, but before we start looking for that partner, it would be a very good idea if we could learn to enjoy our own company first. Once we have a good self-image, and a certain degree of self-confidence, it is then usually easier to amuse ourselves when we are alone. We have then (hopefully) developed some good interests and maybe we even have a few passions that are fulfilling us. This makes us interesting people, people with a mission and something to offer, who will then easily draw the right partner to us via the law of attraction.
The law of attraction is like a magnet, so if we desire to have good company, we must be good company ourselves and also know how to keep ourselves busy with worthwhile endeavours. (If we want our dream partner to have a certain quality, then, to be fair, we must be able to offer them the same quality ourselves.) Then we have earned the right to have a partner who is also good company.

Keep an open mind
So often we go on a date with all sorts of expectations. We have a list of what we want and what we don’t want and some of us are quite rigid in sticking to that list. But people are full of surprises and it is difficult to put them in boxes. We ourselves would like others to give us a chance when meeting us, so we need to afford them the same opportunity.
Some people are quick and easy to get to know and others take their time in allowing us close. I myself nearly missed an opportunity when I met my fiancee. He did not show all his cards in the beginning and because of that I nearly overlooked him. Thank heavens I gave him a second chance, because as time went by I discovered more and more things about him that I really like, and today we are very happy.
And then there is chemistry … If a spark ignites between two people, the “list” often flies out the window and the most unlikely people can pair up and be blissfully happy. Here we need to keep an open mind in the sense that we must be on the lookout for the negatives in this case, as our feeling of being “in love” may lead us into big trouble!
So keep your eyes wide open whilst expecting the best of your date. Be flexible and enjoy each moment.

If you spot it, you've got it!
Some time ago, I introduced two ladies with similar profiles to exactly the same men. One of the ladies loved the men and had such fun meeting them. The other lady could only find fault with them. I introduced them to exactly the same people! So what was the problem? Was there something wrong with the men?
It just so happens that we see people not as they are, but as we are. We notice things in others that we identify with, things that are part of our own makeup. If there are things in ourselves that we are not happy with, we notice them in others, and these qualities irritate us speechless. People reflect back to us the things we don’t like and we think that they are at fault and not us.
The universe crafts situations in such a way that we are constantly given opportunities to learn and grow as individuals. The people we find fault with are often our best teachers. They give us the opportunities to change for the better and transcend ourselves, if we so choose.
I have lost contact with the fault-finding lady, but the one who had so much fun is now engaged to be married to the man of her dreams! When we see the best in life and people, the universe is eager to give us back what we deserve.

A good way to approach a relationship
I am often asked: “Will I recognise my soulmate immediately or will it take time to realise if my partner is my true soulmate?”
My instinct is to go for the second option. So often we meet people we are instantly attracted to, only to find with time that they make a disastrous partner. The chemistry is there in a big way, but so are the multiple problems that go with it. It is important to have some kind of spark between the two of you, but not at such a cost.
If you take the time to get to know someone, something very special can happen between the two of you. The emphasis here is on time and lots of it. The universe has plenty of time and it is a good thing to let it gently unfold. Savour each moment of getting to know someone and don’t be results-oriented. Enjoy what each day brings to your relationship and don’t let issues and baggage drag you down.
If you have this approach, you will have a deep-seated serenity and you will know beyond a shadow of a doubt that your life is perfect and that everything is happening the way it should. You will be content with your life in general and you will attract good things to yourself.
It’s good that we don’t know the future, because this makes life an adventure. It is a friendly universe and things are definitely working out for the good of all of us. This is the only way worth thinking. “As a man thinketh, so is he … “ Whatever you perceive to be true will happen for you. Just trust that this applies to your love life as well and always look at the glass as if it were half full, rather than half empty.
I wish each one of you reading this a truly magnificent partner!
