Love when you are ready. Not when you are lonely. There is a great deal of wisdom in this saying. Loneliness is a rather compelling motivator. It prompts us to make some very poor decisions. When you choose to love when you are lonely, you run the risk of selling yourself short and settling.

Do you find yourself accepting any date just because it beats sitting at home alone on a Friday night? Are you seeing someone whom you know very well you are not compatible with but you continue to date him anyway because it is better than nothing? Do you feign interest in a guy just to get out of the house? All the above decisions are fuelled by loneliness.
