Should we go find love or does love come to us? Or does it just happen? Who knows... We all need it and sorely miss it when we don't have it. Yet it seems elusive at times and not a gentle caller...
You think you're doing the right thing by going out on different dates and then realize it all revolves around the mere search for individual physical gratification. In our community, it seems that whatever may happen in a substantial relationship must first pass the physical test. Is it possible to try a different approach? I don't have any answer but a whole bunch of questions... Meanwhile, the dating game demands so much energy, and yet we easily become entertained and absorbed in its animal and ephemeral sensations. At that point, we don't even remember the original purpose. We may fail to see 'the one' pass by if the rendezvous is just another touch-and-go. I guess the chance of finding my other half may be blowing in the wind... Will I ever breathe it in?
I should stay positive though, envision the type of partner I want, and keep going... finding all of the pleasures and brief moments of happiness in my several other endeavors. I hope I can do that and thus avoid growing desperate or overanxious! If I didn't have a profession that so nobly feeds me with good energy, I'd be a total wreck.

I love this: "I guess the chance of finding my other half may be blowing in the wind... Will I ever breathe it in?" Painfully lovely image.
My belief is there are are several "one's" and it's just a matter of finding the right one at the right time for us both!
I have no experience with the physical setting the bar. I have been blessed and cursed to fall in love many times. It is always complex and the grass often feels greener--autonomy & loneliness or companionship & compromise...
