Episode 2324: Dr. Diana Kirschner explores the self-sabotaging dating pattern where women dismiss potential partners over trivial flaws, believing they are "not willing to settle." Instead, she argues, it's essential to focus on a man's deeper values, like empathy and personal growth, which are the real foundations for lasting love. She challenges women to give men a fair chance and avoid the perfectionism that often leads to missed opportunities for happiness. Read along with the original article(s) here: http://lovein90days.com/not-willing-settle-love-life/ & http://lovein90days.com/how-to-tell-if-a-guy-has-soulmate-potential/ Quotes to ponder: "Love often comes in a surprise package." "These complaints have nothing to do with the qualities that make for a partner who can provide lasting love and happiness." "You unconsciously project your own feelings of inadequacy onto each guy you meet or date."
