So also, if you are the silent reserved type and the other person too is
the silent reserved type, the there will hardly be any dialogue at all! The
word over here is “compatible.” The interests of partners should complement
each other and not clash.
Keyword Searches
So now that you have decided what is it that interests you in a person
and what your interests and tastes are, try such key word searches on a search
engine like Google.
The idea over here is not to advertise yourself as a person who
is in search of a life partner. No matter how well you put it, it looses that
touch of subtlety once you are in a singles’ chat room. So don’t do it that
way. You remember how we spoke about working backwards; this is how it is done.
We will tell you how to project yourself best in a later chapter but for
now let us talk about finding Mr. Right or Ms. Right. An interesting thing to
be noted here is that it is not difficult to fall in love with a person or to
make a choice. The difficult part is to make the right choice and to fall in
love with the right person.
Likes Versus Dislikes
The second thing that you could do is chalk out a list of qualities that
you genuinely dislike in a person. Yes I am not joking! Dislikes are just as
important, or even more important than likes. We all have to make compromises
here and there, but if we start away by condoning things, which we genuinely
dislike, it is going to tell on the relationship at sometime or the other.
I would like to give a word of caution over here. A lot of people make a
mistake when they are courting. They put up their best behavior, which is very
good of course, but they try to be very adjusting and accommodating which is
NOT very good. A point that they tend to over look is that they are not going
to be going on a camping trip with this person that they are trying to impress;
they are going to be living the rest of their lives with the person.
So it is best not to be very “oh so very accommodating and adjusting.”
You can afford to stick to things that you are very particular about.
And if you have any thoughts that you will be able to mold the person out of
his or her offending habits at a later date, forget it.
