Dating
On a Mission
The world of dating, where to begin. Navigating dating can be both exciting and daunting and is not always a straight path.
Finding a life partner is usually high in peoples priorities in a bid to live a happy life but this can put a lot of pressure on the dating experience.
Be Honest
A key piece of advice is that it is important to be honest and upfront about your intentions and boundaries from the start. Having said this, it is also crucial not to come on too strong at the beginning as it can put too much pressure on the situation. Feelings can develop over time and dating is all about spending time with people, getting to know them, and seeing where it leads.
Remember to be yourself rather than trying to fit into someone else’s expectations. In order to attract the right person who appreciates you for who you are, you need to be you. It is attractive to be unapologetically you.
Rejection Is Normal
An important thing to remember is that rejection is a natural part of dating. It is easy to take it personally when we get rejected but try to view it as an opportunity to find someone who is a better match.
It is difficult when we liked them, saw potential and possibly even started to get feelings for them. If we go into the process with an open mind and some preparation that rejection may happen, it can make to rejection easier to digest.
There are an enormous amount of reasons why people don’t feel like a match is a good one.
Other Foot
The shoe can be on the other foot and it is you doing the rejecting, it works both ways. Sometimes you just know from date one that feelings are never going to manifest and sometimes it takes longer for you to decide. It is important not to cut people off too soon if the spark is not there from the start but you still like them. Remember that a lot of relationships develop out of a friendship. It is not all love at first sight
Have Fun
Lastly, don’t forget to have fun and enjoy the process. Dating is not just about finding a partner, but also about learning more about yourself and what you truly want in a relationship. By embracing this, you can have positive dating experience.
