I've been single for the past 2 years and I feel like I'm finally in a good place. I know what I want and who I am. I know I don't have to have a man to be happy but I wouldn't mind having someone. However when I do meet someone it just never works out and I tend to attract everything I don't want in a person. They start off nice but later on I find out they were not what they appeared to be. Will my luck ever change?

These guys have problems I can't get over...alcholism, drug use, always talk about how much money they have, etc. Its not little things. Things that down the road would be trouble

It's not luck, it's making smart choices based on what you want, need and expect in a man. For some weird reason, a lot of people spend more time deciding what they want in a car, and think having a list of requirements in a mate is someone "wrong". Make a list of what you want, need and expect, and don't settle for less. Don't go on what you think you feel about a person, go by who they are.

Of course it does. You know we reap what we sow. You make your own luck. When you are in the right place emotionally, you will attract the right person. Be outgoing, be emotionally available, and be you.
You know if alcohol use and drug abuse are issues, you might want to stay out of bars to meet people...churches or charities are good places to meet the kind of folk that avoids these issues.
Someone who talks about how much money they have? Hmmm...I still believe that we send out vibes to attract those who we do. Also, it does appear that you are looking for someone now that you feel that you are ready. Some times good thing come to those who wait.

Sure, of course! You shouldn't worry. Dating is about testing out what you want in a person. It is better to find out that you are not meant to be with a person while you are dating, instead of while you are married. You will know when the right person comes along. I married my best friend and have never been happier. For every person, the time comes at different times. You should celebrate being single and test the waters until you find the perfect person. You will know when you meet the perfect man.

I had this problem before I had my daughter....then once I found out I was preggers...i gave up guys for two years to find out why I was picking such losers....then I met my sweetie on Yahoo chat (of all places) and have been with him for the last two years. He is little bits and pieces of all the guys I dated before and what I liked about them all rolled into one hunk of a man who just poped out of a fairy tail and swooped me off of my feel....so yeah, I believe that luck can change!

No. "The lot is cast into the lap; but the whole disposing thereof is of the LORD" (Proverbs 16:33). As God is the author of every dice throw, God is the author of every result in every game of "chance." Thus, there is no such thing as "luck." God doesn't change, so "luck" doesn't change. What must change is how God blesses you, but that would require your participation in prayer and worship. Get going.

I've always believed that we make our own luck.
So yeah, you can change your luck--change how you approach the whole dating-thing--you said you attract the wrong kind of person--is that because of where you hang out to meet them, or what you say or what you might appear to be?
Good luck, you can do it.

honestly, theres no such thing as luck.. no matter what you do every day your going to end up the way you were supposed to, so continue to be in your good place and the right man will come along, and as they say its when you not even looking. dont believe in luck, believe in faith.
best wishes your gunna be fine

Yes, you have to take risks, and instead of attracting the things you don't want, seek out what you do want and go for it. In other words take a more active, less passive role.

Yes, it will. I didn't meet my husband until I was 26. It's ok to be picky about who you're going to spend the REST of your life with! I think you sound smart and like you know what you're doing.

I've been single for 9 years, so probably not.
