Are there really that many fish in the sea? What if this guy is your soulmate and you pass him by because your standards are too high? So many of us have wondered these things at some point in our lives. And even though it’s normal to think about them and keep your expectations realistic, you should never ever lower your standards for a guy. Here are the top 5 reasons
1. It is natural for men to feel intimidated by women with high standards. A man who is not fazed by your high standards will rise above the fear of living up to your expectations and be the man you seek.
2. With time, men tend to respect a woman who maintains her high standards. As they get closer to you, they would overcome their initial reservation and appreciate the lady you are.
3. A man who tapers off under the pressure of high standards at an early stage has proven that he won’t live up to those standards in marriage – if the relationship eventually leads there.
4. A lot of women have worked hard to develop themselves, hence they shouldn’t have to settle for anything less or someone who would deter their aspirations and ambition.
5. Many people don’t end up marrying those they really love and want to be with. Most often tend to settle for the next-best available options. If you settle and lower your standards to get into a relationship or marriage, you’ll never be fully satisfied and would constantly crave more.
