Allow the fabric to absorb the soap and water without over-soaking the fabric (or it will become heavy and too soggy to create bubbles). Instruct children to gently blow in a steady stream to achieve a constant, consistent flow of bubbles. If the fabric becomes too saturated with bubble mixture, remove it, wring out and replace. Blow as many bubbles as you wish, adding more bubble mixture if needed.

Know your own real needs and distinguish them from other people's expectations. Be honest with yourself about your faults, you need to meet someone who will find your faults minor and forgivable but prize your strengths. Sometimes they are the same thing - a determined go-getter can be described as stubborn by someone who doesn't like her. Try turning every criticism anyone ever gave you inside out, find the compliment version and ask if it's true. Really knowing yourself will make you much more ready to meet someone else. Though personal growth is a lifelong process, if you're struggling to figure out who you are, it'll be much more difficult to figure out what you want in a relationship. Being aware of your flaws, and being ready to address them, will also make you more ready to address the issues that arise in a relationship. If you're convinced you're perfect, you'll be much less likely to compromise. If you find it, all the better. But, admit it; you're not perfect. No one is. If you're looking for a 100% perfect man, you will never find him. So be quick to forgive those little mistakes or annoying habits that don't matter, and hopefully he will overlook your imperfections too. Understand what types of annoying habits rile you so much they're a deal-breaker and be up front about those, as well as those you don't think of as a big deal. If you can't stand a forgetful man, you may have to bend on something else to find one who never forgets an anniversary or errand. If you expect perfection, then you'll be too picky to be able to see whether the man in front of you is right for you after all. Let's say you go on a first date with a guy who you think is "okay" and decide never to see him again; why not have a rule of going on at least two dates with a guy before you write him off? If you turn away a guy who doesn't meet all the criteria on your "perfect man" checklist, you may be overlooking some amazing qualities you didn't even know you were looking for. Just remember: not expecting perfection does not mean the same thing as being ready to settle. You're better off being alone than ending with a guy who you think is "good enough" or "better than being alone." If you want to be ready to find the man of your dreams, then you have to be content with your own company before you begin your search. Forget the myth of finding the man who completes you or makes you whole; you should already feel like a fulfilled, well-rounded being, whose life will be improved by the presence of the right man, but not completed. You should have enough meaning in your own life -- through your friendships, work, and outside interests -- to make you a person who is happy on her own but ready for commitment. To grow as a person and be ready to meet the perfect man, you should always designate some time each week for some much-needed "alone time." If you spend all of your free time with friends or family, you are much more likely to be co-dependent. If you enjoy your own company, you will also be a more fun person to meet, because you'll be excited to talk about all the things that matter to you. This is another important point. If you want to be able to find the man of your dreams, you have to love who you are. This doesn't mean that you have to completely love every part of yourself, but that you are confident in who you are and happy with what you have to offer. Being aware of your flaws is part of loving yourself, and it will make you a much more grounded person in a relationship. You don't have to brag about what an amazing person you are; you just have to know that you are a worthwhile person deep down. Finding the man of your dreams will not make you automatically love yourself. You'll need to work to build your self-confidence on your own. Of course, finding the right man will make you love yourself even more. But you need to start with a baseline of self-love for this to work. Yes, ladies, you'll need to get some experience before you can find "the one" and know what you want. Though if Mr. Right walks right into your arms when you're barely out of high school or college, you shouldn't let him get away, most likely, you'll have to wade through more than a few duds to find the diamond. Dating various men will help you get a better sense of your dating style, and of your real expectations in a relationship. You shouldn't date people you obviously don't like just to get some experience, but you should think about being open-minded and dating various people, even if means stepping out of your comfort zone a bit. Getting some experience will also help you see how difficult it is to find "the perfect man"; every man is different and has a lot to offer, but nobody's perfect. If you expect perfection but never date, it'll be much harder to shatter this illusion.

One-sentence summary -- Understand yourself. Don't expect perfection. Be happy being alone. Love yourself. Get some experience.

You will need this in order to accurately measure and track your urine output. You can purchase a urination-measuring cup from your local pharmacy. Most pharmacies and drug stores carry urinals for men to measure their urine output, as well. Measuring cups for urination measure the volume of your urine in cubic centimeters (1 ml = 1 cc). Each time you use the restroom, record the time of day, how much you urinated, and your fluid intake and type. For your fluid intake, measure how many ounces you drink between trips to the bathroom. Keep a record for at least three days where a day equals a 24-hour period. The days do not need to be consecutive; however, pick days that will be easy for you to record. By measuring out your liquids before consuming them, you can accurately calculate your fluid intake. Use measuring cups to measure your fluid intake. For example, write: 10 a.m., 3 cc, 8 oz of tea. You can also record your urgency level on a scale of 1 to 3 where 1 is mild, 2 is moderate, and 3 is severe. Urination frequency during the day should be tracked separately from urination frequency during the night.You will also need to calculate the volume of your fluid intake. Do this for each 24-hour period. Taken together, compare these results to the urination frequency of an average adult. These results will help you or your doctor determine if your urination frequency and volume is normal. For example, urinating eight to nine times while consuming 2,000 ml of fluid during a 24-hour period is considered normal. Applications like Pee Tracker and iP Voiding Diary can help you track your urination frequency and volume, as well as fluid intake. Applications are helpful alternatives if you do not want to manually fill out a diary or chart. However, you will still need to purchase a measuring cup to measure the volume of your urine.
