Why are we still single?

There are approximately 7,556,900 people living in London, and around half of them between the age of 20 and 59 are single. Where are we going wrong? If so many people are single, why is it so hard to find the one?

Last year November I broke up with my ex boyfriend of 3 years, dating different guys for about a year and one by one they all flailed. Finally I thought I found the one, 6 foot 3, Chocolate skin and bloody handsome, he was everything I was looking for in a man and in the bedroom ;) and like so many of my past relationship this one went south too; throughout the time we was together I blamed myself I thought it was me. Like so many people we think, was I the reason why my relationships were not working?

After talking to friends about the problem, they were all saying pretty much the same thing “you tried honey, the ball is now in his court” or “you gave it your best shot, it now his turn” but the one that really got me thinking was “it takes two to tango babes” and this is true, it does take two to make a relationship work. So many people these days give up on the first hurdle. Is this why so many people are single?

If you fall of a horse, are you not told to get back on it, if you fall of your bike are you not told, to wipe away the dirt and try again. Why is to so hard to do this in a relationship.

When you fall over the first hurdle don’t part and go separate ways, try jumping over the second and the third even the fourth if you have to. Keep going till you get to the finish line and maybe just maybe though all your hard work you will past the line and no longer be single.
