Maybe it's the thought of Valentine's Day breathing down your neck. In my last column, I suggested you take stock of where you are in your social life. Human beings are creatures of habit. Often these habits are not fully conscious. Notice your patterns.
Some men start like a house on fire, later losing interest.
Maybe you are only interested in men who are 10 years younger than you, or you only find buffed gym rats appealing even though you haven't been to the gym in 6 months yourself. If you're finding it hard to meet men who match your standards and you wouldn't consider dating someone your own age or with a body like yours, it is time to take a look in the mirror and find out what is going on. If so, you might want to look at whether you are comfortable simply being alone sometimes. If you are looking for men to fill a space inside of you that only you can fill, you are likely to be unsuccessful in relationships. Working long hours may be fine for your career, but it can play havoc on your social life.
