This week's question comes from Julie:
Dear Orna and Matthew,
I have been getting your emails for several weeks now, and find them very inspirational.
After being hurt, badly, by my ex husband, many years ago, and then again, after a 3 year relationship, which ended a year ago, I have opened up my heart, and taken a leap of faith, in hopes, of finding my real soulmate.
2 months ago, I was browsing through an online dating site, and a picture stopped me in my tracks, the profile, was the most articulated had ever read, and it struck a chord of recognition in my heart. I then tried to contact this man, only to find his profile was taken off, I contacted the

Another guy NOT the one?
This week's question comes from Nicole:
"Hi Orna and Matthew,
I’m reaching out today after many years of listening to you both on your webinars and reading your blog and I’m starting to think that I have a problem that I cannot solve on my own.
It seems that no matter how interested I am at the beginning, I end up deciding that whoever I’m dating is not “The One” for me. Sometimes this happens very quickly, and sometimes it takes a few months.
I haven’t had a significant relationship for over a decade and I’m starting to worry that I’ll never find him, or I’ve already passed him over because of something that I’m doing wrong.
All of my friends are paired

Tired of being lonely…
This week's question comes from Kama:
Hello Orna and Matthew,
I’m a 37 yr old woman and I’ve never been married. I’ve dated a lot, but I’ve never had a relationship last much longer than a year. For some reason, whatever feelings I have for a man when we start dating don’t seem to last. I get bored or frustrated with the situation and I end the relationship.
The problem is I really want to spend my life with my soulmate, but I’m afraid I’m never going to find him. I’m just so tired of being lonely. Part of me believes I should just settle for the next decent guy who wants to marry me…
I don’t know what to do, and would appreciate any help you can send my

Told You Are TOO Emotional?
This week's question comes from Nikki:
Dear Orna and Matthew,
I am really struggling, and I hope you can help me. I seem to be stuck in a pattern of attracting men who seem like a good fit to start, but the relationships only last about 3-6 months. By that point, I always thought I’m supposed to relax in the relationship… when I do, the men leave me.
They all tell me some version of being drawn to my self-esteem and my confidence, and that they now find that I’m “too emotional.” It seems that when I express my true self and let my guard down, they don’t like who I really am. That I am somehow too much for them to handle.
I don’t feel that I am any more emotional

How do I not mess it up?
This week's question comes from Sylvia:
Hello Orna and Matthew,
I would like to know about a man I'm interested in. I met a man online and we seemed to hit it off. We've been chatting online and I finally wrote an email to him but he hasn't answered me yet. He told me he wanted to meet and then I haven't heard from him. I really like him and I don't want to mess this up. What do I do!?!
Thank you.

Dear Sylvia,
Thanks for reaching out to us. First off, know that you can't "mess this up." What we mean is that you cannot say or do the wrong thing with the right man. The key is how you approach it from the start.
First off, you must understand that a
