Have you ever been in a situation with a guy or girl where everything you do is wrong? No matter what you say or do it just makes the other person mad. How can you pursue a relationship with someone if they always make you seem like the bad guy? Picking fights over nothing is NOT OK. If someone apologizes for a little mistake, it needs to be forgiven and the other person needs to just let it go. It should not be brought up every time you get into an argument; that's not fair. How can someone say they like you if they pick apart everything you say and take it in the wrong context? This is what makes me feel like relationships just aren't worth it especially with people who are too damn moody. Just get off your high horse because unfortunately no one is perfect.

Do you always meet Mr. or Ms. Wrong? Here are some things you can do to help you find that
perfect someone.

1. Follow your instincts, BUT make sure you take your friends' advice as well. Sometimes following your heart is the best thing to do but make sure you are aware of what your friends are saying about the person you are seeing.

2. Do not get intimate too fast. You want to get to know the person before you begin your physical relationship with them. People, especially guys, tend to lose interest after they get what they want.

3. Try to get to know the person. You need to learn to evaluate a person and the only way to do this is by truly getting to know him or her. By finding out their history and evaluating their personality, you can predict whether he or she will be a good boyfriend or girlfriend.

4. Don't get carried away. The idea of being in love is appealing to many and sometimes you get carried away with this notion and become oblivious to other things. The reason you might not be finding the right person may be because you are too busy wanting to be in love rather than working for it.

5. Look for the warning signs. By looking for similarities between the person you are currently dating and your past unsuccessful relationships, you will be able to tell immediately that this person is not right for you. Don't ignore these signs or you are asking for another Mr. or Ms. Wrong in your life.
