It’s so easy to get caught up in the same type of mate. Whether it’s the “bad boy” attraction or the “runway model” obsession, sometimes we seem to date the same type of person over and over… and over… and over again! If this sounds like you, maybe it’s time venture into uncharted territory.

Maybe the “nice guy” isn’t so bad. Maybe the low-maintenance, “free spirited” girl is a breath of fresh air. The truth is, we all have these preconceived notions, whether consciously or not, of what we want or are supposed to want. Maybe your list is short, maybe it’s long – but I bet you have one. While there’s nothing wrong with a list of “wants”, if yours still looks the same as it did 2, 5, or 10 years ago, something isn’t working.

Could it really hurt to try something new? To branch out a bit? Maybe this rut you’re in with the same person in a different package is the reason your search for love hasn’t come to an end yet. So give it a shot – date someone outside your comfort zone a bit. You don’t have to go crazy and look for the complete opposite type of person from what you’re used to – maybe try a new thing here… a new things there… Don’t be fooled by your own assumptions – you might strike gold!
