Pledge to Either Be Happy with Yourself or Change

It happened again. Another guy told me he was burned by an online dating experience by a girl who posted really old pictures that did not represent her current self. This guy is a good looking, successful business owner, who tried online dating once. He said it was painfully clear that his date had posted really old pictures of herself. Being the nice guy that he is, he didn't mention her false advertising and stayed for the duration of the date. But,feeling duped, he never returned to the world of online dating and later met his current girlfriend at a gym.

Ladies (and gentlemen), you can't deceive and expect it to end well. Either learn to accept yourself and be happy with who you are or commit to improving yourself to be the person you aspire to be.

I've never been a big fan of New Year's resolutions because I adhere to the philosophy that if you really want to make a change, you can decide to do so at any instant and don't need an annual event to push the issue. But, for those who do make resolutions, I suggest you make one to either accept yourself or improve yourself!

Take away lesson: If you aren't comfortable and truthful with yourself, you can't expect anyone else to be comfortable or truthful with you.
