All the Good Guys Are Taken: 7 Things Women Tell Themselves that Keep Them Single

I always enjoy reading Virgina Clark's love advice on YourTango.

These general ideas Clark shared got me thinking about the specific self-defeating messages I repeat (unintentionally) when I think about the dating scene as I know it and my feelings about finding love. I compiled this list of the dating and relationship myths I've bought into that I'd like to let go of. How many of these resonate with you? -By Carolyn Castiglia
