A client of mine (whom I will call Susan) was 29 years old when she came to seek my help. She wanted to get married, but no matter how many different men she dated, none of them led to marriage -- and she was very frustrated.
Initially, I had to make her realize that she was contributing to her problem by dating only men that were “exciting” to her -- and didn't necessarily have the qualities that were important to her. Was it any wonder that those relationships never ended up in marriage? It took Susan a few months to accept the fact that her dream man might not appear to be her dream man upon the first encounter.
In the past, she had often dismissed most of her dates after just one encounter whenever she didn't feel that "instant chemistry" with them. I showed her a proven plan (see How to Find the Man of Your Dreams) that enabled her to zero in on the qualities she really wanted in a husband (instead of just the superficial qualities).
She wanted a man to be strong, independent and caring -- which were qualities that none of the "exciting" men she used to date possessed.
Over the next few months, her choice of men began to improve as she implemented the plan. Slowly, she realized exactly what it meant to listen to her heart -- and she finally met her dream man! A few months later, I not only received a wedding invitation from her – but she asked me to walk her down the aisle!
