Dating 101 - give yourself time

The purpose of dating is to spend time with a person and to decide if you want to see them again,

Not to decide if you want a relationship or to marry them!!! That requires time!

I work a lot with the women in my SASSY program on not diving in too quickly or letting their desire for a relationship overpower their ability to be discerning ⚖️

Instead, we focus on them having fun and enjoying the interactions they’re having, while exploring the connection….

They’re encouraged to go into the experience with an open mind and a level of optimism, no matter what their past experiences have been.

Why? Because if they have a negative mindset, and carry beliefs like “I never meet anyone”, “people cheat”, “I’m not desirable”, chances are they will find those experiences!

Not only that, they’re not bringing their best selves to the table…. Side note; pessimism is NOT attractive 🙅🏼‍♀️

If you’ve had negative experiences in the past but you’re desiring to see the dating world differently, from a places I’d optimism I have 2 things for you;

#1 Start paying attention to positive relationships around you so you can see that what you deeply desire is possible.

If others can be in a happy, healthy relationship, there’s no reason why you can’t.

#2 Take your time 🐌 and enjoy interacting with people you’re attracted to (that’s enjoyable in and of itself)

There’s no need to invest too quickly; in fact, it’s problematic to do so 🚩

Allow yourself and the potential relationship time to reveal what’s possible… give the other person enough time to reveal who they truly truly are.
