Top 6 Reasons You Are Not Married

So its a new year and many of us have a resolution list and I’m sure finding love is at the top. As simple as it might seem, we are unable to accomplish this task year after year. Has the thought crossed your mind that character is an important magnet that attracts a man to us for a moment, season, or a lifetime? With that said, Popular Critic has decided to do some research to identify some of the reasons why love and marriage is not in our immediate reach. Just so you know, we borrowed this list from (Tracy McMillian). Sit back and answer these 5 questions. It may lead you to understand why you're still singing Beyonce's hit song 'Single Ladies': Are You Angry? You probably don’t realize it but you might be an angry person and as a result are scaring off potential suitors. Anger erodes relationships because it resides deep in a persons soul, affecting reactions and the ability to love. Men don’t like angry women and prefer to marry a woman who is nice and most importantly respects them. I know it sounds unfair to conform to a man’s standards and insecurity but its a big part in his decision to pop the question. Are You Superficial? Most women like myself have a list of physical and non-physical traits we would like our mate to possess. We have an idea of what he would look like, dress code, profession, and the list goes on. It takes time but we have to realize sooner than later that perfection is unattainable. If you are looking for a husband, intricate factors such as character and maturity should be on the top of your list. Those external factors like money, looks, and prestige can fade away at any given time and where does that leave you? So tear up that old list and start a new one that will bring a man of character your way and one that is willing to commit. Are You a Floozy? The mistake that most women make is to think they can act like a man when it relates to dating. Women by nature are loyal and nurturing creatures (which is in part due to a bonding hormone) and men look for these qualities in a potential wife and future mother of his children. Stop hooking up with random guys and having sex without any commitment. I know its a new age and women feel empowered to make decisions about their bodies but take casual sex out of the equation and become more selective. Are You Egoistic? Webster dictionary defines Egoistic as “being centered in or preoccupied with oneself and the gratification of one's own desires". If you keep thinking about all the benefits you can receive from a partner then you are going to stay on the single train. Marriage is a partnership where both parties give and take, so you have to stop thinking only about you. A good wife is not selfish and will support her husband in good and bad times. Are You Dishonest? Does honesty have an important place in your relationship? The answer is yes and it matters a lot. If a man cannot trust you, he cannot place you as number one in his life. If you lie for no reason or cover-up little white lies, it gradually destroys the relationship. Be honest in all situations and that will attract your Mr. Right. If you think back to your past and even your present relationships, you’ll probably see some places where you could have gotten married. Holding on to old behaviors will keep you from finding your fairytale ending. Make up your mind to transform yourself into a person who is honest, virtuous, giving and most of all accepting of yourself and you will attract what you deserve.
