Deciding If A Date Is Right For You And Some
Factors For Consideration
For any date, expectations and anticipation
about what will happen and how it will go, are totally within your
control. Other important factors about a date that you will have some
control over are the location and how long the date will last.
Similar to the issue of expectation and
anticipation that are within your control, is knowing yourself and
determining what you want and desire from dating someone. You need a
certain amount of self-awareness because, for example, you need to be
honest about some things that you may not like and which can easily
upset you. That may include even normal habits or mannerisms that your
date may have.
As you continue to date, another factor
that you will be able to control is the bond and friendship you develop
with your date. To control this aspect of your dating experience, you
will also have to be very self-aware to determine if it will be to your
utmost benefit to continue to date and possibly develop a stronger
friendship and get into a deep relationship.
There are some individuals who are weak
and can be easily led into relationships and situations in which they
aren't happy. But because they lack the courage to do what they really
desire, they suffer. You can control any situation, including dating, in
which you find yourself, but it will take strong action and the resolve
to make any necessary changes.
You need to know that you can control the
progress in your dating experience so that you don't suddenly find
yourself embedded in a relationship with someone that you aren't totally
happy with. That can happen if your date has a strong personality and
likes you more than you like him or her. Based on the feelings of your
date he or she could think you feel the same way and therefore is in
favour of progressing you’re dating to a serious stage.
It's therefore important that at all times
you are aware of how your date is developing, what is planned and how
things are progressing. You need to remember that you have a say in
routine decisions such as the location for a date, but that you also can
control more important matters such as how it progresses. Because at
the start there is such hope and anticipation about dating, the hope is
however, that your dating experience will meet and exceed the
expectations of you and your date, making you both wish that it didn't
end.
