 <\/p>\n

Realize this, lower<\/span> your expectations and let things develop.<\/p>\n

Oh, you’ll still date some clunkers and<\/strong> also many more agreeable people.<\/p>\n

Are you still holding valiantly for someone to appear and meet all<\/span> your expectations?<\/p>\n

Take the person with the most potential<\/span> and work with them.<\/p>\n

the more you invest in each other, the more you create in common<\/strong>, the longer you’ll be together.<\/p>\n
