A few people have had an interesting experience: they actively searched for a romantic companion, but couldn't find anyone. Once they stopped searching, someone entered their lives.
The paradox of life is the fact that the more something you want, the less likely you are to be able to get it.
If a man has an excessive desire to be with someone, he will not only show a desperate need for love, but if he does manage to find a partner, he will do anything to keep her, including subservient behavior that can end the relationship.
Men who are driven to succeed will often make decisions that are unethical or implement strategies which, while they may produce short-term results, ultimately doom their efforts.
Unmoderate neediness in a man is a sign of a lack of self-confidence that will repel the very people he wants to befriend.
Your desire for the object you are seeking must be strong enough to motivate and energize, but not so powerful that it corrupts or smothers. You need to want it but not necessarily need it.
When a man finds his company enjoyable, he is more likely to find a partner.
When a man can be happy and complete even if he doesn't succeed, he is in a better position to achieve success.
A man can only be a good friend if he is able to live happily without one.
