Today's ❤ Message
You Only Live Once!
Most people establish a comfort zone, whether knowingly or subconsciously. This helps people build a sense of security, and people yearn for control. Even if you consider yourself to be easygoing, you likely have your own limits. The Universe is reminding you that the phrase “YOLO” or “you only live once” should apply to your love life. Gaining confidence takes time, but it’s something anyone can do. There are simple things you can change to your routines that will build up long-term healthy habits.
Be honest with yourself! Attraction is built based on a number of factors, and physicality plays a major role for many. You may have unknowingly built up a “type” of person that serves as your ultimate ideal. This isn’t a bad thing; however, it creates walls for you that shouldn’t exist, preventing you from meeting someone you might truly click with.
Try to date outside of your type at least once. The experiment might take a lot of emotional energy, but it’s a venture worth attempting. Sometimes, you may learn the most from people who are vastly different from you.
No one was successful in the pursuit of love by being timid. Shy people do find love, of course! But even the most socially awkward people have found the love of their lives by being more confident than normal. There’s someone out there for everyone, even if you can’t see them in your immediate view right now.
Shoot your shot–if someone is single and interested in you, you’ll know. Look out for social cues that indicate interest like touching, body language, and their tone of voice. Subtle comments feel less subtle when you think about them later.
Most people only regret things they didn’t do, not things they did do! Life gets so fast-paced that it’s easy to forget what’s really important. If your love life is a priority, act like it is one.
Boldly approach new opportunities instead of waiting for love to show up at your doorstep. Everything can disappear in the blink of an eye; you’d hate to find out later on that you totally could have dated your barista crush if you weren’t too scared to ask them out.
The truth is, you only live once! The famous mantra applies to all areas of life, but especially love and romance because that’s where you’re most likely to take high risks to reap high rewards.
Give yourself a little more grace because you never know who could be watching you. People you’re crushing on are way more likely to already be attracted to you than you may recognize. Your dream partner may be waiting for you to make the first move!
Remember, even your most attractive crush is still a person with feelings, fears, and insecurities. Plus, dating as an adult is much different than dating in high school. People will be far more receptive to you than you’re anticipating.
Your love life requires care if you are to see results. The real world doesn’t always look like your favorite romcom, but you can do things to enhance your love life that make sense for you.
Actively going after what you want, including taking risks to pursue your undying crush on someone, will help you feel fulfilled. Make the most out of your time by reminding yourself that you only have one life, and it’s up to you to have the experiences that you yearn for!
