There was an article in the New York Times about all of the Buddhist tourist attractions in San Francisco. It closed with a quote from the great Buddha: All living beings, whether they know it or not, are following this path.
It is important to remember that you are not alone on your quest to find someone to marry. You know how people say “Timing is everything?” The point of that statement is someone out there right now is also on a path to find their beshert. You may find this person at your next intersection. The goal is to make sure you’re focused on your path so that when another wayfarer crosses your path at the right time, you’ll be ready.
And guess what? There are other people on the path too, like SuperYenta, who are here to help you stay the course and quit the one night stands and the little relationships that can never go anywhere. Lean on these people to help you stay focused.
Some of my clients say they come off as desperate on dates because they want love so badly, and this desperate feeling ruins their time on the date. Their paths are rocky, littered with expectations and memories of the past. Remember that your journey needs a path, which has a beginning and an end. The journey itself, in this case, is not your destination. When you relax, follow my rules, and understand that your journey will not last forever, you just may meet someone at the next intersection.
