DATING TIPS & HINTS
Dating Resolutions
|
Dec-28-2005 With every New Years come Resolutions that almost everyone makes but that most people eventually fall back on from breaking bad habits to good deeds. This year in your dating life pick a few resolutions that you will stick to not just this year but throughout your dating life! Be Happy With Your Life - I vow to make myself happy first in all aspects of my life especially with my job, interests and relationships. If you are not happy with what you are doing in your life from your job to appreciating yourself take time to figure out what really would make you happy and take the steps to be happy. It can definitely be scary to start something new like a job or breaking away from a relationship that is not emotionally and physically satisfying but you can do it! Broaden Your Horizons - I will not decline a date with someone who is not 'my type'. Don't pass on someone until you get to know them. Love happens at the most unexpected times with the most unexpected people! You don't want to be judged like the cover of a book. Don't do the same to others. Do the Right Thing - If I am not interested in someone I will tell them. Don't take someone's number and never call them or lead someone to believe that things may go somewhere to 'spare their feelings'. If you are not interested in someone thank him or her but tell them upfront you are not interested. Although the rejection may be a blow to an ego it is a lot less hurtful then leading someone to believe you'll call or date them in the future. Have More Fun - I will have fun on a date regardless of how bad it is going and learn from the experience. When life gives you lemons make lemonade, but if it's too sour or sweet or you just don't like it then toss it out and start again. If you realize that your date is not going well from the beginning don't sit through an awkward evening with someone you know deep down you will never call. Tell them that you don't think things are working and either continue the date on a platonic friendship level or end the date and go do something that will make you smile. Get Out There - I will stop procrastinating in asking someone out when I meet someone that interests me. Don't let life pass you by because you are too shy to ask someone out or feel that they have to ask you out. Take a breath and jump into the game. Is it really that bad of a thing if someone says no to you? If they do just move on and don't take it personally it probably has more to do with them then it does with you. Rosie, The Love Vixen |
