What can you do when the trials and tribulations of love get on your nerves?

Keep everything in perspective. If your guy has an annoying habit like cracking his knuckles or belching all the time, tell him about it. Don't just sit there and simmer letting your annoyance build up over time. After all, if you were doing something to annoy your man, he'd certainly be the first one to bring it to your attention.

Realize that love, or the lack of it, is a process. There will be ups and downs and you're never going to find the perfect guy. Repeat that phrase over and over again when things get tough for you in romance. No guy is perfect. The best you can hope for is damn, near perfect and that takes time to find and develop.

It may sound cliche, but simply stopping yourself for 10 seconds when your man belches for the seventh time in one dinner sitting and taking a breathe will do wonders for you. It centers you and allows you to focus on yourself and remaining calm. When you're overwhelmed with frustration because you can't find a good man to date, the breathing technique is also helpful. Take a deep breathe and as you can exhale, think of yourself releasing all the negative thoughts about love that you just had.
