Dating can be the waterloo of many good men and women – when in fact it shouldn’t be. Why have this one thing stop you from having long-lasting and loving relationships? However, yes, it can be such a grueling thing to do, to go through several lemons to find your gem. If only that last speed dating meet-up through a dating agency included that special someone …
Like it or not, dating is a necessary journey. It’s what you have to do to find someone you can settle down and enjoy the rest of your life with. You may also find treasures who will later on become your friends, lovers, or even your life partner.
Sometimes though, in taking this journey, you stumble. You can make some mistakes that can damage your chances, or even impede a blossoming relationship. Check out the list of dating personalities below. Are you becoming one of them? If you are, then this is your wake up call. Don’t make the dating mistakes these personalities are making.
Mr. and Ms. Wall
Mr. and Ms. Wall don’t say much about themselves. They may talk about trivial stuff like how good the potato salad is or something like that. But rarely would you get a glimpse of who they are – and maybe, rarely would you want a second date with a Mr. or Ms. Wall. The point in dating is getting to know each other, right? If dates freeze into walls and refuse to reveal anything about themselves, then it makes the date futile.
An open communication is always important in relationships, even in budding relationships. How many times have you heard of couples breaking up because they seem to share nothing in common? Likewise, how often do you hear about couples stalling relationships because they seem to have nothing else to talk about?
Talking is a way to share yourself. It can be about the smallest things, like the joys of walking in the rain or that wonderful soup you made the night before. Even the simplest of information can reveal sides of you that endear yourself to your date.
Mr. and Ms. Expectant
You may have gone to dates or have had relationships but a Mr. or Ms. Expectant seem to think you can all act like his or her last perfect date. To save you time, tell this date that you’re made of different stuff. A Mr. or Ms. Expectant shouldn’t be expecting their dates to conform to their ideals.
Mr. and Ms. Non-Truster
Likewise, you may have been bruised by bad relationships or date experiences. This is no reason for anyone to completely shut off a perfectly good date or person. Some trust is required if you are to enjoy a night out with a date.
Mr. and Ms. Reckless
Reckless dates are those who often go right into a steady relationship without really thinking if they or their partners are really ready for it. Going on a date is for you and your partner to know more about each other and to see if the date leads to something more serious. If you have made this mistake before, slow down and take into consideration yours and your partner’s maturity level and feelings.
