Dating is primarily a numbers game.... People usually go through a lot of people to find good relationships. That's just the way it is.

Endings are a part of life, and we are actually wired to execute them. But because of trauma, developmental failures, and other reasons, we shy away from the steps that could open up whole new worlds of development and growth.
Henry Cloud
Image
Successful people stick to what they are good at and find ways to make that larger.
Henry Cloud
Image
Because dating is a human exercise, it can be a tightrope fraught with danger. You will be dating imperfect people, and some of them are more imperfect than others. In addition, you are not perfect either, so that complicates the picture.
Henry Cloud
Image
Values are sometimes worth living and dying for, and are certainly worth dating and breaking up over.
Henry Cloud
Image
If you want to become healthy, you have to surround yourself with a group of people that are getting healthy and you have to be connected to a community that is doing what you want to do.
Henry Cloud
Image
The mature person meets the demands of life, while the immature person demands that life meet her demands.
