Getting Back Into Dating

Dating is suppose to be fun. Getting to know someone that could potentially turn into something more. But, like most things in life, it isn’t easy. For some of us we don’t have the best reactions to flirty or just the whole process. Sometimes we have a fight or flight responses. But there are small things we can keep in mind to be a little better

Work on your body language

I’m sure a lot of us know some of the signs that have been told to us about how people are interested in us. Eye contact and having our feet turned towards who we are talking to. We can be sure to be engaged in the date by making sure we are present in the conversation. Not crossing our arms or looking at our phones excessively.

make sure you feel safe

This is more so you can be present. I get a little jumpy or keep looking around if I feel uncomfortable with people I do not know very well. Make sure you have comfortable clothes or feel safe in the place you meet up. I know up women know about having a friend close by, sometimes undercover, just to feel better.

don’t fake anything

It hard enough to create a relationship. More so when we try to put of a face that isn’t us just to get others to like us more. Its exhausting to be something you are not. So don’t say or do things you really don’t like. It is ok if the two of you have things not in common, you just need to be respectful of it.

slight change in behavior

Keep an eye out on your own behavior and theirs. For ourselves to see if we pushing ourselves to do thing we are not comfortable with. Some of us are too good at pushing those feelings away but our bodies can’t hide it. But also for the person you are with, good or bad. One to see if they start acting fishy. But also notice if they are having a good time. That can be such a confidence boost, which we all could always use.
