My best friend says that when you are not getting any dates, you should date anyone, even if you don't like them, to 'get the juices flowing'

I think she might have a point. I'm not sure I believe in 'juices' or 'energy,' but I'm open to experimenting. Sometimes we have to do random things to reconnect with a part of ourselves that can get us back on track.

Call it 'manifesting', 'moving the energy ', or call it 'letting go of our old blockages', but something about this approach works. Sooner or later, you'll end up dating more and more people until you find the one you like most, and hopefully, you'll stay with them forever.

More attracts more. It's just like when you get into a relationship, and more people find you attractive all of a sudden. I think people subconsciously pick up on that or something, so if you want to attract more people, maybe start dating more. You know, to get the juices flowing.

So if you haven't given up on the whole dating thing just yet, please try it and let me know next week, because I definitely can't do it.

I guess I'll try praying or something like that because I refuse to date someone I already know I don't like. Maybe love is not for me, guys; I think I'm beginning to accept it.

They say you'll never get different results if you never try anything different, and I think they have a point. I suppose the only way is through, so when I'm ready, I'll definitely try dating random people, but until then, please share your experiences and see if you convince me to try.

I'm counting on it! But first, a meme list to smile while you manifest your new partner. Enjoy:
