When there is a strong desire to share your amazing life with someone else, you know with certainty that you are ready to date again.

It is not because you are in desperate need of companionship with someone.

Desperation leads to entering a relationship too quickly and for the wrong reasons.

When you take a good look at your life and love so much about it, your head is in the right place.

It’s a full life and you are growing as a person.

Your relationships with friends, family and the like, are healthy.

Your life at work is good and your life outside of work is filled with activities that enrich your life.

A strong perception of fulfillment follows you wherever you go, as you embody a life of vivacity and want for nothing.

Gratitude is never far from your thoughts.

Gratitude for the richness of your life from day to day, as you look forward to what every new day brings.

Even though you are having these experiences without a partner in your life, you are happy and content.

You are perennially game for something new, whether it be in meeting new people, finding a new hobby or gaining more knowledge about the world at large.

With this mindset, you know that you don’t need to date again out of necessity.

A partner isn’t required to fill a void in your life.

Your life is already full.

You are ready to date again when you understand that this new person is a compliment to your life and not a necessity.

People make a mistake when they choose to date again in the hopes of fulfilling something that is missing in their lives.

This isn’t someone who is ready to date again for the right reasons.

This is someone who is needy.

Any relationship initiated from neediness is doomed to fail.

Don’t be this person.

In choosing to date again, you aren’t giving up your independence.

You still intend to keep living your life to the fullest, filling it with fun activities and great friends.

But, you are now intent on having someone share your wonderful life with you, as you do theirs.

This potential partner isn’t completing a missing piece of a puzzle in your life.

That puzzle is already complete.

Life is a journey and you are excited about having this potential partner go on this journey with you.

This is not solely about dating someone, it’s about adding a new experience to your already fruitful life.

You know you are ready to date again when you think, feel and behave like this.
