Are you immersed in the search for the ‘one’? Dating online? Asking people to fix you up with single friends? Have you hit a wall? Without proper support and good healthy habits, it can feel overwhelming and depressing, this constant feeling of being let down in your love life.

She was about to send him her phone number, when I put the brakes on that email.

“Promise me you’ll always remember: You’re braver than you believe, and stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.” Christopher Robin to Pooh
When life gets you down, when you feel rejected, dejected, and down and out, remember that you are wonderful, that your friends see the true treasure that you are, even when you don’t. Go find a good friend, and ask them to remind you what they love about you.
Who’s your Christopher Robin?
