5 Changes To Make In Your Dating Life

One of the biggest problems in the online dating world is the inability to land a second date. There are few things more disappointing than receiving a first date with a person that we are genuinely interested in, only to feel a crushing sense of disappointment when our hopes of a second date goes straight to an un-returned voicemail, lingering in second date limbo forever.

Well in order to prevent this from happening, it is important to practice our craft and make sure that we are great at dating in general. Dating is a skill that must be perfected just like anything else in life. If we want to find success, we must make positive adjustments to this area of our life. The following are five changes that you can make in your dating life:

1. Stop presenting so much.

Many people feel the need to impress the other person. This results in way too much presenting, and not nearly enough listening. When we are constantly trying to be the source of entertainment, the side effect is often talking too much about ourselves. Being the entertainer is fine, but don’t go overboard. Your date should receive half the speaking time.

2. Every date should be treated with equal importance.

Most people start out the process of online dating by treating each date is if it is meaningful and exciting. As time goes by, this open-mindedness often gets traded in for a business like attitude of, lets meet for drinks and get this over with. Throw this attitude in the garbage and start getting serious again. Going into a date with a half-motivated attitude almost never ends well.

3. Be open-minded.

Online dating has created the false mindset that we can find that perfect person who has all 5 million qualities we are looking for. This is just not going to happen. Walking into a date with a checklist of everything you expect in the other person will leave you nothing more than old and lonely in the long run. Not everyone fits into the perfect mold of what you expect in your head. Keep an open mind throughout the date and truly get to know the other person, not just the parts that you want to get to know.

4. Be easy-going.

There is no bigger turn off than a man or woman who is extremely particular about every little detail of the date. This is a red flag that a relationship with that person will be rigid and closed off to new experiences. Be open-minded and allow everything to flow naturally.

5. Keep the conversation light and fun.

Maybe you want to have three kids in the next few years. Maybe you want to get married in the next two years. Maybe you are pro-abortion, hate democrats, and refuse to date someone who likes Justin Bieber. Kidding on the last, but my point is, keep these heavy topics for a second date. The goal of a first date is to have fun, to get to know someone’s personality, and work from there. There will be plenty of time in the future to get to know these people on a deeper level in the future.
