Online Dating Resolutions
Filed in archive by Kathryn Vercillo on January 1, 2008
If you're going to start the year off right, it's always good to set some goals. At the very least, this helps you focus for a little while on what you want for your life. Now that last night's partying is all complete, it's time to make that list. Here are some ideas for online dating resolutions that might make your year a little more fun:
- Be more selective but less judgmental. These two things seem to oppose each other but they go hand-in-hand if you consider them a two-step process. First, be more selective in who you choose to have conversations with online. Make a list of the qualities that are really important to you in a date and don't waste your time with people who don't seem to have those qualities. Once you do go on a date, be less judgmental while you're there. It doesn't really matter that he's wearing an ugly polka dot tie or that she seems taller than her profile said.
- Go to new places. If you're always meeting at the same coffee shops, restaurants and bars to have a first date then your first dates probably all seem the same. Use dating as an excuse to try new things and to go places that you haven't been before.
- Be kind to yourself. When getting ready for dates, do you eye your appearance carefully and worry about what to say? Be less hard on yourself. We've all got flaws and strengths; focus on the good things about you. Treat yourself like you're worth the best and you'll find that your dates will treat you the same.
- Keep a journal. This is a fun time of life, even when it doesn't always seem like it. The journal will remind you of that. And it will also keep you more in tune with your feelings about dating.
- Have fun! Dating doesn't have to be about stress and marriage goals; it can just be fun. Approach it that way and the year should go well.
