Atlanta Singles Dating Traps - Dating Trap Number 8 - The Love Trap
By: Jeff Herring
Dating equals love, and love is all you need, is a bad and false equation.
The Beatles sang “all you need is love.” And they were wrong. Read on to discover how to avoid The Love Trap and what to do instead.
Singles make one of the biggest dating and relationship mistakes when they interpret attraction, infatuation, and sex as love.
“If it feels good, it must be Love.” “Love is all you need.” “Love conquers all.” And other false and dangerous sayings.
Over the long term, love is more of a decision than a feeling. When we base our relationships on just our feelings, we are on shakey ground. Feelings ebb and flow, and even change. Love as a decision can be renewed every day.
It can be a crushing disappointment when you discover that love is not enough, especially when your needs and requirements are not being met in a long term love relationship.
Solution: Fall in love? Sure. Base all your decisions on that feeling of love? No, no, no. Make sure that you are making decisions about a life partner based on more than just feelings. Base your decision on the facts, such as do our requirements and needs line up in a way that leads to long term success.
