The more you meet people, the better your chances are of finding a lifetime partner. But some people actually fear rejection or have been rejected several times that they lose the confidence to either ask people out or to go out on dates for fear of any negative response. We have to learn and realize that rejection is a part of the dating game and we can't expect to please everybody. It is natural to have rejection fears but if you have often been rejected you'll get used to it. As much as possible though don't let it dampen your fighting spirit or discourage you from always trying. As long as you are just yourself and you feel confident (but not overconfident), prospects will like you for who you are.

As you make meeting people your goal, strive to meet many prospects and get to know as much as you can. Your family and your circle of friends could always be your bridge to meeting other singles who are also interested in going on dates and getting to know others to whom they could possibly or potentially start a relationship with. You can always casually mention to them that you are currently looking for someone and if anything comes up be open minded about it and appreciate the new friend or acquaintance that you have gained in case you feel that things will not work between the two of you. You will likely end up in several blind dates but in the same manner that you select from the basket of apples the most juiciest apple you think you can find, your search for that special someone or partner in life can be of a similar scenario.

Don't think that you seem kind of desperate if you will be going on several blind dates. Aside from getting to meet someone new, a blind date is an avenue for you to have a nice day out for a meal or a drink, to engage in some conversation and to get to know more about a person.

Dating is all about meeting people as your search for that one person who you think is right for you and whom you can shower your love to.
