According to Dr Annie Kaszina of YourTango, a new poll suggests that one woman in eight has given up on finding love.
But does this poll really predict the feelings of all heartbroken women around the world?
Dr Kaszina explains the reasons behind these new findings on the high rate of women giving up on love:
The yearning for love is a normal, powerful human drive. When we try to suppress it, it only comes back stronger. The polls may say what they please, but the reality is that the vast majority of women need to feel loved. Giving up on love won’t make you happy, and it won’t work. Taking a sabbatical from love while you become the woman who can captivate and keep her perfect partner makes a lot more sense. You don’t have to give up on something simply because you don’t know the best way to do it. It makes much more sense to learn the simple skill that will turn your love life around.
