Signs That You Have Low Standards In Dating Men

Low standards in dating can significantly hinder one's journey toward finding a meaningful relationship. I aim to illuminate the signs that indicate one may indeed possess such low standards, thereby necessitating an elevation of expectations to attract a more suitable partner. A primary indicator is the tendency to persistently engage with individuals who appear intermittently in one’s life, fostering a cycle of uncertainty and emotional instability. Moreover, a lack of personal agency—where one consistently acquiesces to suggestions from potential partners—further exemplifies diminished standards. Additionally, failing to establish non-negotiable criteria when evaluating prospective companions signals a profound need for introspection and refinement of one’s dating principles.

In this episode, Keith Muoki shares deep, practical, and spiritually grounded wisdom on relationships, love, mindset, healing, identity, and personal transformation.

This teaching is designed to help you think deeper, understand yourself better, make wiser decisions, and stop living from confusion, pain, fear, or emotional pressure.

In This Episode, You Will Learn:

• How to understand the deeper meaning behind this topic

• Why many people struggle with this issue in real life

• How relationships, emotions, mindset, and spiritual awareness shape your decisions

• Practical wisdom you can apply immediately

• How to move with more clarity, peace, and self-respect

Transcript
Speaker A:

I want to give you signs that you have low standards in dating men.

Speaker A:

Many women have always asked, how can you say that I have low standards?

Speaker A:

Now these are some of the things that will make you understand that for sure you've got some low standards and you need to improve them so that you can get the perfect person.

Speaker A:

Alright?

Speaker A:

Number one, you always keep on texting and entertaining the guy who disappears and reappears whenever he wants.

Speaker A:

Now this is a low standard of life, a low standard of dating.

Speaker A:

If this person keeps disappearing, going out and coming back and you keep on texting him, please, where are you?

Speaker A:

Please can we talk?

Speaker A:

Can we meet?

Speaker A:

Can we do this?

Speaker A:

This is a low standard of dating.

Speaker A:

You need to understand that this is something you need to improve.

Speaker A:

And once you improve it, then you have raised your standards of dating.

Speaker A:

Number two, you're always ready to go with the flow and accept everything that he suggests.

Speaker A:

You have no your own ideas.

Speaker A:

You don't have anything that you can say of your own, which is uniquely you all the time.

Speaker A:

You just go with the flow.

Speaker A:

Can we do this?

Speaker A:

Oh, yes.

Speaker A:

Can we?

Speaker A:

Yes.

Speaker A:

Or this?

Speaker A:

Yes.

Speaker A:

Let's meet up on Thursday.

Speaker A:

Yes.

Speaker A:

You don't have your own ideas.

Speaker A:

Then that's a low standard, a low standard of dating.

Speaker A:

Number three, you don't have a non negotiable dating standard to filter the men that come into your life.

Speaker A:

Any man goes, whether he's like this, is like that, you don't really care.

Speaker A:

You don't have a test, a specific test.

Speaker A:

You can say, these are the kind of men that I want, then that is having a low standard of dating, all right?

Speaker A:

Because you cannot just be out there and let's assume, for example, you, you are a lawyer.

Speaker A:

But it doesn't matter.

Speaker A:

Even if who comes along the way you don't have, you cannot say, I want to date a business person or a lawyer or a farmer or someone you know, you must know what you want.

Speaker A:

If you don't know what you want, then anything is going to go.

Speaker A:

And that's a low standard of dating.

Speaker A:

All right?

Speaker A:

And the other thing is that you always get intimate very early thinking that this intimacy that you have with this person is going to get him obsessed with you.

Speaker A:

My sister, intimacy does not keep someone.

Speaker A:

It is about how you carry yourself.

Speaker A:

And if you carry yourself in the right way, then whether you have it or you don't have it, he's going to respect you and is going to see you as a valuable person.

Speaker A:

Do you see the point?

Speaker A:

So it's very important for you.

Speaker A:

Because I know there are many ladies who think if I accept his demands quite early, then he's going to see me and he's going to like me and he's going to, you know all those things.

Speaker A:

My friend, what you need to understand is that you need to know, am I doing it on the basis of being.

Speaker A:

Trying to be good to someone so that he may give me the favor back or.

Speaker A:

Or is it me by my own choice?

Speaker A:

You understand?

Speaker A:

And that is what we call standards of dating.

Speaker A:

And the last thing that you need to understand is you need to be very keen on the times that you're opening up, because there are people who open up just too early.

Speaker A:

You start talking about your exes, you start talking about your failed businesses, your failed lifestyles, your failed things.

Speaker A:

My friend, let me tell you one thing.

Speaker A:

If you do it this way, then he said going to look at you in the essence of your failures and the things that you have done and is not going to respect you.

Speaker A:

And that is going to be a low standard of dating.

Speaker A:

So, ladies, please raise up the way you date by fixing the things that I've told you.

Speaker A:

And you will see a smooth moment when it comes to dating.

Speaker A:

And if you're going through a situation whereby you just don't know how you're going to fix it and you're already deep in, just talk to me.

Speaker A:

Go to my website, kathemoki.

Speaker A:

Com.

Speaker A:

There's a way to talk to me on my WhatsApp and we can discuss.

Speaker A:

I'll show you how to be able to fix that and get the perfect relationship.

Speaker A:

God bless you.

Speaker A:

Have a good time.
