I'm tired of meeting guys who disrespect or hurt me. I want someone who will love me for me, someone I'm attracted to.

Truthfully, you do have to stop looking for it. There are men out there like that, but it takes some time to find the right one. It took me five years, but it was worth it. It will happen it just take time to let them find you. They also may have been there all along. I hope this helps.

If you go 'looking' for true love, you won't find it. If you stop looking and just have fun, you will find it in the most unexpected place at the most unexpected time.
I found my soul mate last year. I had been in a 20 year horrible relationship and had left him. I wasn't looking for someone else as I had had enough of guys for awhile. Then I met HIM. OMG!!! He is totally different from my ex husband. I have never ever felt this way about someone before! I didn't live with my ex before marrying him, found out after marrying him that he is a loser, liar, cheater, user and abuser of people and drugs, among other things. I learned my lesson well and now live with the guy I am with. What a difference it makes!!
Anyway, I was 40 years old when I met my true love, my soul mate. I wasn't looking for it and it showed up. Not everyone takes so long to find their true love, others take longer. It just depends on what happens in each persons life before they meet that one special person. If I had met my current fiance years ago, I would have still been married and not been able to do anything. So, I guess we met at the right time.

How long is too long? Mr or Mrs Right will come along when it's the right time, although it might not seem like it at the time. I think I have found Mrs Right, but only more time will tell.
Might I suggest picking up Dr. Phil's book "Love Smart," I bought it thinking it would be a book for men and women, but boy was I wrong. This book is geared towards helping women date, find love, and be happy--I've learned some things from it, but he seems to have a lot of good advice.

I met my prince when I was 25 years old. Up until then, I kissed a lot of frogs! Don't rush things, I enjoyed dating lots of guys, you learn what qualities you are looking for in the man that you want to spend the rest of your life with. I look back on dating and kind of think it's funny that you date a certain type of guy, someone who keeps you on your toes, I liked guys who were a challenge. That is not the kind of guy you want to marry though. You want to marry a guy who goes to sleep the same and wakes up the same everyday, someone who is always dependable and easy to live with. My husband is nothing like the guys that I dated...and that's a good thing, we've been married 14 years. Your Mr. Right could be the guy that you weren't even willing to look at twice, you never know...

I am not quite sure if there is a Mr or Mrs Right. Its a matter of Mr or Mrs most compatible. I went through the same as you. Meeting men who would cheat on me,liars,those that wouldnt appreciate me fully as a person. I spent much time crying in my pillow. Over what? JERKS! Yet, I always kept the faith. Faith that there was someone out there for me. I finally met and married him 10 months ago, My advice, dont waste your time and tears on jerks, move on. The more you move on, the closer you are to finding your mate. And keep the FAITH.

I was um 19 when I met Mr Right.
How did I know? Cos he was EVERYTHING i had prayed for. He really was. I had written a list of attributes that i wanted in a man. I got a man who has every one of them...and more.
God certainly answered my prayers :) But it took 19yrs of my life. All 19 years, being single.
He will come, believe me lol I know. I was sure i was going to be single forever, but when i wasnt looking (yes it is true that it happens then) God gave me the awesome Husband that i have now.
We have been married 4mths :)
Just have patience :) enjoy single life, have fun with your friends, do what you want, the world is yours.
And when the time is right....he will be there....and u will not know what hit ya.
Godbless and good luck

I mett my boyfriend almost 4 years ago after a really bad relationship. We met online. We never really hung out for the first two years. Mostly just chatted online, but never met because we were always in a relationship and it just never came up to meet. We both had mutual friends in the area so we have met in passing, but never really hooked up.
In Early-Mid 2004 I was in a really bad relationship with a guy that refused to let me talk to matt, who was then just a friend, and the guy I was dating actually called matt telling him we couldn't be friends. After that relationship ended and I had a few months to cool off, matt decided to take me out to see what a "real guy was like" It was all over from there.
Moral of my story is, you could already know the guy, you just gotta quit looking, they'll fall on your lap when your least expecting it.

I met my husband and dated him for 3 years and we went our separate ways after another 18 years we were married. Everyone told me were to young to be in love all those years ago, and in my eyes all the other men I dated never compared to him.Now I would be lost without him. Do not put on blockers and do not let looks be the final factor, because you might be surprised you may already no that special someone.

well.. i truly believe that when you are not looking true love will find you... that's how it was for me.. i was actually talking to this guy that i liked- thought maybe it would work out for us, found out he was a jerk, and right at that time i met the most amazing guy (we were both 19) we are now married (for almost 2 years) and expecting our first baby any time now.. so stop looking, leave it in God's hands.. pray about it... worked for me.. best of luck
