Are you ready for love?

Are you ready for love?

Are you ready for love, or are you looking for something else for now? Are you ready to meet someone and embark on a deeper relationship? Here are some questions to help you think about whether you’re ready to put yourself out there.

1. Someone you met through a friend has asked you on a date and you have accepted. You wear:
The same sort of thing you always wear
Something subtle
Something that flatters your figure
The sexiest outfit you’ve got
2. You’ve been out for dinner and you’ve fallen for your date. You:
Try to hide it
Say you’d like to see them again
Hope they guess how you feel
Kiss them on the way out of the restaurant
3. You spent an amazing night together, after which your date said they’d call you, but they haven’t. How do you feel?
You can’t trust anyone
You’ll probably call them – perhaps they’re just shy
You want to tell them exactly what you think of them
Like a fool for believing them in the first place
4. How do you explain the fact that you’re single?
The idea of getting into a relationship frightens you
Everything takes time
You just haven’t met the right person
You love being on your own
5. A friend accuses you of not making an effort to meet a new man/woman. You:
Thank them for their concern, but it’s your life and you’ll decide how to live it
Show them that your diary is chock-full of dates
Think of a retort that will change the subject
Remind your friend that you don’t want to meet anyone anyway
6. How do you think you would feel if you met your soul mate?
Reassured
Alive
Doubtful
Relieved
7. What makes you anxious about getting into a new relationship?
You might not be good enough
You wonder how you’ll fit in with each other’s lives
You might get hurt
It might not last
8. What question would you most like to ask a therapist?
Why are relationships never simple?
Why do I find it so hard to be on my own?
Why do I find it so difficult to act on what I want?
Is it really necessary to be part of a couple?
9. If someone breaks up with you, you:
Feel like you hate everyone and everything
Get on with your life as quickly as possible
Feel the ground crumble under your feet
Find someone new to go out with as soon as possible
10. Generally, how do you feel when you’re single?
Glad that you’re not contributing to the divorce rate!
Quite happy and secure
You’ve got a chance to explore what you want out of life
Really, really depressed
