Some people want to rely entirely on chemistry but not every relationship begins with the two of you unable to stop speaking.

If we look to someone else to satisfy what we’re lacking in life then we’re going to end up attracting the wrong people for the wrong reasons.Success and passion attracts the same in others, so if you’re putting your passions first and truly following what makes you feel fulfilled then the CEO’s are going to be interested to see what makes you so successful…and maybe even buy you a few drinks to get the conversation started too.Obviously no one wants to date a stick in the mud, and to be honest, personality should be at the top of the priorities list anyways and not #3 when it comes to a potential partner.But, are you putting so much emphasis on your partner being super fun to be around without taking to the time to find out if you even enjoy your own company?As a young, professional woman, I can tell you with confidence I see at least three social media posts a week from my friends with links to articles like “10 Ways To Know He Is The One” or “5 Easy Steps to Catch Your Perfect Mate” and, while those are all wonderful things to be aware of, I think it is just as beneficial to work the system backwards sometimes!Instead of seeing if they have your “checklist top 3” why not look at it from a different perspective and identify some things to NOT look for right off the bat in a partner?
