Dating advicesDating is a skill that can be mastered like any other skill. All you need is the right attitude, knowledge and persistence to be successful. 1. Do plan ahead. Dating is a creative diversion that requires concentration and energy, so make arrangements ahead of time and let your date know you put some thought into the evening. 2. Do stay positive, even when dates don't end well. It is most certainly true that you will date a few frogs before you find a prince. Along the way, you will probably meet some pretty nice people. 3. Never date a married person. Statistically, it is very unlikely that they will ever leave their husband or wife for you. Dating someone who's married is the best way to serve yourself a heaping helping of misery, lies, deceit, sadness and heartache. If you are married, separate before dating. If you're single, don't be a shoulder to cry on -- you deserve better. Go out and find someone who's emotionally (and legally) available to you! 4. Never make yourself too available. People like mystery and enigma and the thrill of the chase when dating. As part of keeping up the mystery, do not sleep with your dates early on. The longer a person is made to chase and fall for you within reason, the more likely that love may blossom. If the chemistry peaks too early, your emotions may never have time to catch up and the relationship will eventually wither away. 5. Think about what you want to gain from dating and what timeframes you expect. Do you see yourself married within 2 years? If you do, then approach dating accordingly. If you are more laid back and don't take dating too seriously then ask yourself some honest questions about why you are dating and what you hope to achieve. If it is purely sex then ask yourself if you are about to be honest with those you hope to date. 6. If you want to keep your date interested in you, you must be conscious of your efforts.

If they call you instead, let the voice mail pick up, and return their message the next day. Absence only makes the heart grow fonder. 7. When seeing someone for the first time, don’t rush to introduce them to your family and friends. Wait about one month before introducing them to every aspect of your life, planning combined with patience is the secret to great love, so just enjoy the ride! If you do, you will provide the foundation that makes for a lasting relationship. 8. A little preparation ahead of time can save you tons of aggravation in the long run. Fill the conversation with details about your life, and be sure to learn about the person sitting next to you. 9. When in conversation, take a break from talking about yourself, and ask your date questions. Showing interest in the other person is not only considerate, but it also lends itself to a deeper discussion. 10. You can’t expect to attract a mate by looking your worst, so make hygiene of the utmost importance. know what you’re looking for in a mate, and make no exceptions if the other person doesn’t match those criteria. |
