There comes a moment (or several) in most single people’s lives when they feel like they are going to be alone forever. They lament their inability to find someone to spend their life with. But with 7.9 billion people (and counting) on Earth, there’s got to be someone out there for everyone.
And the truth is: finding a significant other is the easiest thing in the world.Seriously. Here’s what you should do:
Or more than one. Maximize your ability to find a partner and let others know that you’re serious about finding a significant other.
Once you’re on the dating app, make sure you respond to every single person that sends you a message. You’ll need to weed out the scammers and bots, but it won’t take you long to figure out how to spot those. You can then focus your attention on the individuals who are “serious” about making a connection.

Or more than one. Maximize your ability to find a partner and let others know that you’re serious about finding a significant other.
Once you’re on the dating app, make sure you respond to every single person that sends you a message. You’ll need to weed out the scammers and bots, but it won’t take you long to figure out how to spot those. You can then focus your attention on the individuals who are “serious” about making a connection.
To increase your chances of finding a partner, make sure to swipe right on every profile that comes your way. Then, send out messages of your own. Make sure you don’t copy and paste, lest the system flag you for being a scammer or bot.
Change up your greeting, but keep it simple. You’re sending out a lot of messages, but you need to stand out, so don’t resort to “Hey,” “Hi,” or any variation thereof.
Keep in mind that even though you send out a ton of messages, not everyone will respond to you. For those that do, make sure to keep the conversation going by keeping them talking about themselves.
People l-o-v-e to talk about themselves.
Don’t chat on the app for too long. Remember, your goal is to get into a relationship as soon as possible, so if someone hasn’t asked you out after a few days, you’ll need to take the initiative. If they say they want to get to know you better first, you decide if they’re worth your time and effort to continue engaging with.
There will be people who will be anxious to meet as soon as possible. If you’re ready to throw off the sadness of singledom, then get out and make it happen!
Head to the Bar
If instant gratification is more your cup of tea and you don’t want to spend time signing up for dating apps, one of the oldest and most reliable ways to find a partner is to head out to the bars.
Get yourself dressed up and ready for a night on the town!
To maximize your potential of finding someone, don’t limit yourself to one place. Consider visiting a variety of establishments — and keep in mind that your chances may increase the longer the night goes on.
Stay patient and stay awake!
Of course, if you’re lucky enough to find someone early in the evening, hooray! You’ve achieved your goal of changing your relationship status — at least for that moment.
What Do You Mean You Have Standards?
I don’t recall you saying anything about having specific traits you wanted in a partner. All I heard you say was, “I’m tired of being alone.” If you’re looking for a warm body to fill the empty space next to you, then it’s possible to find anyone who can do that.
There are plenty of people out there who are looking for someone like you to boost their ego and fulfill their selfish needs.
There are people who are looking for friends with benefits, as well as couples in open marriages who want their fun on the side or married couples who want to spice things up with a third.
And don’t forget about all those who engage in polyamory. The more people they can add to their life, the better!
I’m not judging.
People can live their lives any way they want. As consenting adults, they can engage in whatever type of relationship that makes them happy. All I’m saying is that if you’re complaining that you can’t find someone, it’s because you aren’t looking hard enough.
Or your standards are too high.
If that’s the case, then you need to reconsider your position.
There’s nothing wrong with having an ideal partner in mind. You deserve someone who treats you right and loves you for who you are. You don’t need to settle for anything less than the best — and you get to decide exactly what that means.
The only issue with having those standards is that you might have to be patient and wait for that person to arrive. You might have to come to the conclusion that being single is better than being with the wrong person — and that’s okay.
Life is much too short to be trapped in a relationship with the wrong person. You don’t want your entire being stripped away because being lonely was uncomfortable.
At the end of the day, finding a significant other is — in all reality — one of the easiest goals you can achieve.
Unless you have standards.
