As hard as it is to admit, many of us settle for relationships because we secretly believe that we can’t do better or are afraid of being alone. Being single can be frustrating and make us feel lonely, especially when our friends are pairing up and settling down. These thoughts can make us feel hopeless and get us tied up in relationships that don’t give us what we want or deserve. What do you tell yourself that you deserve in a relationship? What are you telling yourself about attracting worthwhile relationships? Are you in a relationship simply because you don’t want to be alone? If you haven’t asked yourself these questions or are having trouble answering them, it’s time to ask yourself if you’re settling for less than love. Here are six signs that you are.

Do you find yourself keeping him or her in the dark about your whereabouts? You may even find yourself lying about where you’ve been because you don’t want to hurt their feelings. This may be because the person you’re talking to doesn’t mesh well with your social circle. Instead of wanting to spend time with your friends, they’d rather it be just the two of you hanging out together and this bugs you. This may also be because you’re uncomfortable when they’re around your colleagues and friends. You’re great one on one, they know how to make you laugh and have a good time, but deep down you’re embarrassed when they’re around.
