Why It Doesn’t Pay To Be Too Choosy

Why It Doesn’t Pay To Be Too Choosy

There is no doubt that online dating has given us more choice than ever before when it comes to looking for a partner.

Endless Search

So with all this choice at our finger tips, have we fallen into the trap of being too choosy? It’s all too easy to discard a potential date if we don’t quite like their profile pic and move on to the next.

This unfortunately can lead to an endless search with no one person able to meet their expectations, leading to frustration and unhappiness.

Reality Check

Some single people are not that great at presenting themselves online and hidden behind their less than perfect profile pic might be a little gem waiting to be found. We also need to remember that we are most likely not perfect ourselves before we engage in our pursuit of love, and if we can look beyond other people’s imperfections we may even find our soulmate who only lives a few streets away!
