The worst time to look for a relationship is when you're feeling lonely. Why? Because you'll choose the wrong person almost 100% of the time.
This is because you'll miss the red flags or simply disregard them altogether in order to lock the person down.
You'll also settle for the first person who shows you any interest.
It's a lot like grocery shopping on an empty, growling stomach. You almost always end up spending way more than you intended and you buy more junk food than you had liked to.
So what should you do? You should address your co-dependency issue:
- Learn to love yourself more.
- Establish a self-care routine if you haven't done so already.
- Find a hobby or two.
- Read 30 minutes a day.
- Meditate 15 minutes a day.
- Recite your affirmations throughout the day.
- Write down your goals.
- Write down your manifestations.
Get in the habit of smiling on the inside and outside more. Look at yourself in the mirror and say to yourself, "I love you!"
It won't be long before you start to cherish your own company and that serene, beautiful peace.
Cease the seeking of a relationship altogether and watch how you eventually magnetize the right person who is going to respect and value you.
We've all been lonely at one point or another, including myself. And I made a HUGE mistake by getting into a terrible relationship all because I didn't want to be alone. I missed ALL the red flags. That's ok though. You live and you learn.
Hopefully, you and I don't repeat any of our mistakes.
Has this happened to you? Have you ended up with a toxic person because you were eagerly looking for someone to keep you company? Let me know in the comments section.

Hello Josh.
Thank you for the good job you are doing.
Glory be to God I made it to your comment section.
Thank you once again.
Yes Chris Josh I learned my lesson, I spent many years in an abusive relationship. When I found Jesus, that’s when I woke up and found my worth! I found Jesus and I found myself.
Thank Chris!
You truly make a difference!
