The biggest complaint that I still get from singles in Vancouver is that people don’t socialize and I would have to agree. I think the root of the problem is unrealistic expectations. I know you are saying what is she talking about! 
 Instead what if you went out today with no expectations, except to socialize. Not because you want to meet “the one” but just because you wanted to get to know some more people, they could end being a friend, a business associate or you may just have a wonderful conversation with someone that you have never met before and may never meet again. Â
The sun is finally out and beckoning us outdoors, no more excuses.  Try it this weekend, when you are out for coffee, sitting at a restaurant, walking the seawall, you never know who you might meet. If you put no expectations on socializing, I am betting that you will be pleasantly surprised.  Remember to put out that welcome mat and smile at at least three people per day. If it is someone that peaks your interest in any way, hold that smile, take that first step and try making the first move, say hello.   I would love to hear from any of you that try it this weekend. Â
My post is very short today because I am taking my own advice and I am going to go upstairs, get dressed for the day and get outdoors. Maybe I will run into you on the streets of Vancouver. If I do, don’t be surprised if I smile at you, I hope you smile back and maybe say hello, remember no expectations.  
Have an absolutely fabulous weekend.
Sheree

Bingo! Thank you! Finally I hear another smart woman. For years my girlfriends told me that every single guy I date is great, courteous, tolerant and an amazing friend and do you know what my secret is? I have no expectations when I meet people. I never go and look for a guy because… think about it…what will you be looking for on that first day of “looking”? His looks!
Is that the best you can do for yourself? I believe that I am an attractive woman so some say it’s easy for me to find guys…trust me…it doesn’t make me feel any better…they want me for the wrong reasons! and you ladies know it.
Just go and talk to them. I believe that a man should be a man, it’s not his job to be pretty! yes, they should look after themselves and be fit but that just means that they’re doing what we all should be doing…living a healthy life…and guess what…you can take the most amazing guy and help him get in shape by cooking together, going for walks or whatever it is you like doing but if you find a good looking asshole then the only thing that’s coming your way is tears!
But you brought it on yoursel sister!
Sheree, this blog really moved me. Right on!
Thank you.
