What is the difference between settling and settling down




















It's a sign that it's time to put a little more effort into the relationship. If you're not sure whether or not you're just settling, your best bet is to listen to your gut. Many people have an inkling somewhere when they're settling or in the wrong relationship.

If you find yourself settling — or just realizing that you're a little too settled down — it's important to remember that things can change. We may settle for how our partner is during a time of personal transition and then come to change our standards as they change their situation.

If you feel discontent and dissatisfied, is it because you simply settled, rather than keep trying to find the right person to settle down with? It is one thing to settle on a home, a job, or car. It is another thing to settle on a relationship.

But, a warning: Even this version has its flaws. Imagine that during your percent-rejection phase you start dating someone who is your perfect partner in every possible way. Unfortunately, once you started looking more seriously for a life partner, no one better would ever come along. According to the rules, you should continue to reject everyone else for the rest of your life, grow old and die alone, probably nursing a deep hatred of mathematical formulas.

Likewise, imagine you were unlucky and everyone you met in your first 37 percent was dull and boring. Now imagine that the next person you dated was just marginally less terrible than those before.

Beyond choosing a partner, this strategy also applies to a host of other situations where people are searching for something and want to know the best time to stop looking. Have three months to find somewhere to live? Reject everything in the first month and then pick the next house that comes along that is your favorite so far.

Hiring an assistant? Reject the first 37 percent of candidates and then give the job to the next one who you prefer above all others. In reality, many of us would prefer a good partner to being alone if The One is unavailable.

Like it's unachievable. When you settle down, your beh will change for the betterment of the relationship. You will be happy to do it because it will pay off.

When you are in a relationship and feel you should settle down, it's because you have achieved.
