The
Hassle-free Dating Plan
-
by Becky Mentyra
The trials and tribulations of dating make
for good humor and interesting dinner time stories! Doubling
your dating pleasure starts with prioritizing the objectives
of the date.
More single men and women could get more out of their dating
if they applied a failsafe approach to the process.
While there aren't any rules to dating, here are a few pointers
to enhance the dating excitement and thwart the perils of
dating the wrong prospects.
1. Devise a simple dating plan. Meeting singles through
personal ads, online dating sites and in the bar scene can
expose you to a small percentage of undesirables. To avoid
wasting your time, conduct thorough phone interviews with
your prospective dates. Invest five to 10 hours of phone
dating time first.
2. Ask your prospective date the following
questions: where they work, reside, substance abuse habits
and marital status.
These are important questions to inquire if you are planning
a date. Great time and energy can be saved by conducting
a brief "interview". This helps both of you to
know and understand each other.
3. Make your first date simple. Prior to your date, set
a dating schedule... a minimum of an hour to three hours
is ideal. A failsafe dating plan will assure the both of
you are not obligated or disappointed to prolong a date that
may not be going well for either party. Moreover, it avoids
the awkwardness of ending the date soon.
4. Choose a cool dating location. Select a geographically
convenient location for the both of you. Try to find an intimate
and quiet public place but avoid the crowded bar scene because
it will not do much for the first dating encounter if you
can't hear each other talking!
5. Enforce dating security and safety. Whether you are
a male or female, notify a close friend about where you plan
to go on your date. Remember, to leave your date's contact
information.
6. Make a dating pledge. Plan to go Dutch to alleviate
any hard feelings so that no one bears the sole financial
obligation of the date.
7. Finally, remember that dating is a numbers game. Every
date will bring you that much closer to finding that special
person who you will spend the rest of your life with!
What are you waiting for? Get cracking!
