After experiencing and dealing with countless jerk guys, I have gained enough knowledge to understand that being single is far better than being in a miserable relationship. Consequently, I am content with going solo for however long it takes instead of compromising with a man who fails to recognize my value.

1. I care about my emotional well-being

Continuously extending my kindness to someone and receiving no recognition or appreciation is exhausting. I'm tired of being disregarded and undervalued, so I'll reserve my efforts for a man who genuinely demonstrates that he cares and appreciates my actions.

2. Real love should be kind

Finding love shouldn't be such a difficult task, yet it feels that way. Losers who lack basic respect and relationship skills seem to be all I encounter. Perhaps it's just my luck, but what I seek is a genuine and effortless love that requires no questioning. Sadly, few guys appear to be searching for the same thing.

3. I can be patient for as long as it takes

I've been self-reliant for a while now, and although players occasionally try to deceive me, I'm skilled at avoiding such catastrophes. It seems like I'm getting closer to finding the right guy for me. I prioritize myself, and I'm content with showering myself with love and kindness until a guy who is deserving of me shows up and can reciprocate.

4. I'm done being treated like crap

I possess the ability to dictate how guys treat me. By rejecting what I don't desire, I remain authentic to myself and simultaneously convey the message that certain things are unacceptable to me now. I reject the notion of being a doormat or accepting someone who doesn't value me.

5. I know I don't deserve the emotional abuse and games I've endured

I've lost count of the number of times I've been manipulated by guys who pretended to care about me only to use me for their benefit. When I've confronted them, they've dismissed me as "crazy." I'm exhausted by the invalidation of my feelings. I've evolved enough to comprehend that mistreatment of women by some men is entirely unacceptable, and I won't tolerate it any longer. Goodbye!

6. My forever guy needs to be someone who knows I'm a prize and shows it

I shouldn't have to second-guess a guy's feelings towards me when we're dating. If he genuinely treasures me, he will demonstrate it consistently. I've had my share of mediocre attempts at romance, and I refuse to settle for less. I desire a man who steps up and behaves like a true gentleman.

7. I care for my partner, and I deserve the same in return

My desire is to be with a guy who can make me feel cherished and appreciated every single day, just as it should be. I invest my sincere efforts in the guys I date, and I seek a partner who reciprocates those feelings. When the perfect guy looks at me, his eyes should reflect that he acknowledges my worth and wants to keep me close.

8. I didn't work this hard on myself to put up with BS

I'm content on my own, and it required an extensive amount of effort and hard work to reach this stage. I'm not prepared to jeopardize everything by dating a guy who treats me poorly. I deserve a guy who genuinely values me, and I won't alter my single status until I find someone who meets my standards.

9. I'm truly happy being single

It's my decision to stay single rather than settling for another guy who undervalues me. I've spent enough time attempting to prove my worth to someone who didn't bother to acknowledge it, and it's become quite disheartening. I prefer to relax and continue enjoying the life I have already, which doesn't involve a player who doesn't appreciate me for who I am.
