'Education improves who you are and exposes you to not only potential partners who may be in the class, but many others who are around the educational facility,' says relationship therapist Andrew Aaron. 'Those who value education also share many other good values and thereby increasing the chance to meet someone special of high quality.' 3. What's a cause you truly care about? Volunteering helps to improve your overall mood and self-esteem, and connects you with others who share the same values. Be Open to Finding Love in All Different Places 'Unlike on a dating website or Tinder where deception and distortion are easy, participating in a group effort actually takes a commitment – something that separates those who are low in motivation from those who are vital, ambitious and determined,' says Aaron. Opportunity waits for no man, so don't be afraid to strike up a conversation with a potential match at the grocery store, on an airplane or anywhere you meet someone who catches your eye. 'Being open can mean something as simple as making eye contact with others,' says therapist Lauren Cook. 'As you enter 2022, commit to actually 'seeing' other people in the new year by looking at those around you.' 5. This may seem like strange advice, but according to marriage and family therapist Dana McNeil, the more you expand your social circle, the more likely it is you'll meet someone. 'If you and a date don’t work out having a love match, but you really like the person and their character, there is no reason you can’t help each other to network your perspective groups of friends or family members,' she says.

'If you are both able to be mature and acknowledge that a love connection isn’t happening for the two of you, why not put your collective network to good use and consider if there is someone that either of you knows who might be a good match?' 6. 'It is very likely the people you admire and genuinely care for in your world hang out with and have a close relationship with other admirable and quality people who may also be looking for a new love,' says McNeil. 'Letting your network (co-workers, neighbors, colleagues, etc.) know you are open to and interested in meeting some new people this year is just reinforcing your efforts with help from a community who probably has your back, and wants to help you find the best match.' 7. Speaking of online dating profiles, start putting your true self out there in 2022. 'Dating profiles that are filled with selfies make that person look like they have no social life, or like they love themselves more than anyone else ever could,' says dating profile writer Eric Resnick. 'You don't need a ton of group shots in your profile, but have your friend's take some pics for you. You are going to have a much more natural smile when you are relaxing with your friends than when you are trying to look at the screen with one eye and at the lens with the other.' 8.
