Looking for love in all the wrong places

Looking for love in all the wrong places. 

I actually just read that in some free ad site while bored and browsing the net and it wouldn't leave my thought. It kept on coming back into my mind every time I have already forgotten about it while busy doing stuffs. I guess it's because I recently had my heart broken and the post made me realized a lot of things about love and relationship. One thing for sure is that I find it silly for the poser to say that and wondering if he is trying to say that "online" is the right place to find love. Erm, not that I find long distance relationship or "ldr" weird as I had been to one but is there really a right or wrong place to find love? 

I think we all create that idea to make an excuse for a failed relationship we had. Like for example, we met someone at a party and then it didn't turned out well, afterwards we would say that a party girl or boy will never make a great wife or husband because all they want is to party. So are you saying that just because they like to party, they're incapable of loving and will never be a good partner? What makes you believe that part of why the relationship failed isn't your fault? 

I have this friend who left her husband because she said, she had enough of their fights, misunderstandings. So she got out while he was at work and though the husband tried to talk to her, she refused to listen to whatever he has to say. When I was younger, I would often say, "go girl!" and rejoice for the "girl power" but later on, my views about relationship changed. I would feel happy whenever I hear a couple was able to save their marriage or relationship. Well, going back to my friend, so after awhile, she felt lonely and decided to give love another shot. Since she isn't really into bar thing and most of the people we know were either married or younger, she decided to join meetup sites. Out of curiosity, I looked at her profile to see what she wrote in there and had a laugh after I read the part of what kind of a man she wants to meet. She just totally described her ex husband... the characteristics, the reason why she actually fell in love with him when they were still dating. Yeah, I know because she told me years ago. 

So I'm thinking, is there really a specific place to meet the "one" for you? That you should avoid going to this place or better go to that place because only the best comes to it? I once almost got robbed by a decent looking guy... mind you, he was wearing a slacks and long sleeved shirt with a necktie. What I mean is that you can never tell how great a person is by how they dress nor live their lives. Until you've seen their worst then you'll know if that person is worthy or not. 

Like I always say to friends and acquaintances, sometimes when you feel like giving up on someone, try to remember all the reasons that made you love them. See their best points and forgive their wrongs. Anyways, no one is perfect. Always try to see good things though it doesn't mean you don't have the right to complain. If it's still worthy to save then why not go for it. If you believe that you'd rather part ways and find a new one, my advise is think of all the things you hated about that person and surely you will never looked back again.
