For example, you say, "Please give me a try and I'll be yours forever". Seriously, do not say things like that. Stop thinking such thoughts. Thoughts like that ruin your chance for a good relationship. Look, you are talking to NO-ONE in particular, you are saying to an as yet unknown girl, "I'll be yours forever". You have not even MET the girl and already you are promising eternal devotion!! ! Crazy talk!
The ONLY situation in which it MIGHT be appropriate to say "I'll be yours forever" is if you had been in a loving and successful relationship with someone for MANY YEARS, and you were at least middle age. Even then, it is still a dubious thing to say.
MAYBE you could say it in marriage vows, after having lived with someone for a number of years. MAYBE then. But to say it to no-one in particular? Or to say it to someone you have not yet met? Or to say it to someone you have known a short time? That is seriously very wrong.
With words and thoughts such as these, I find it very unsurprising that you are experiencing difficulty. You seem to be unheathily obsessed with finding someone to love, and it is making it extremely difficult for you to attract anyone. They quickly realize that you have the wrong attitude, and promptly run for the hills!
I think that if you work on your attitude regarding relationships, love, and dating, and change it to something more healthy, you will experience more success.
I wanted to say the very same thing but I just didn't know quite how to put it. Cheers.
