While relationships can be difficult, they are definitely worthwhile. One way to smooth out the rough edges of a relationship is by choosing a partner that is mutually supportive in life. The best way I have found in attracting the kind of partner I want is by defining the kind of person that I wish to be in a relationship. The things that I wish to accomplish, the kind of interactions I wish to share and experiences I wish to create. The more I clearly define the kind of person that I wish to be when in a relationship, the more confident I feel about myself and my life. Then as I start to act as this person, I lay the groundwork for the person that can fulfill these roles with me in my life. In short, my focus is on being the kind of person that I want to be if I were to have the person of my dreams and I live my life as this person, which allows the person of my dreams to enter into my life.
