I'm sick of being single I always end up getting hurt | The Sun

DEAR DEIDRE: I AM sick of being on my own, but no matter what I do I always scare off potential partners.

I’m a 52-year-old mother of three, and I’ve been divorced for more than ten years.

Since my marriage ended I’ve tried so hard to find the love I deserve, yet I find myself getting hurt again and again.

Every time I meet someone new, instead of going with the flow, I always come on too strong.

The excitement takes over, and I can’t help but jump the gun.

I find myself instantly at their beck and call, and I fall head over heels straight away.

While I don’t want to be that person, I don’t know how to restrain myself.

How can I change my ways?

DEIDRE SAYS: You are clearly a very passionate person and have a lot of love to give.

This is nothing to be ashamed of, and you should feel pride that you have such a big heart.

However, everybody approaches relationships at their own pace and it sounds like you are self-sabotaging by moving too fast.

I’m attaching my support pack How To Find The Love Of Your Life which will help guide you through the early stages of relationships.
