What
Does Dating Mean To You?
What
does dating mean to you? It depends on your generation. “Going
out” to a middle school girl means
that you and a boy like each other even though you really aren’t
going anywhere.
“Going
out” to a high school girl means that you get into
his car and actually go somewhere without a parent driving.
By the time you are a young adult, “going out” can mean anything
from casual dating in the new “friends with benefits” all the
way to targeting him as “the one.”
Clearly dating has many meanings. Dating also has different
meanings to men than to women. To avoid disappointment, you
need to know what dating means to him. Chances are if he’s
like most guys, he can date casually for a long time without
even thinking about a commitment.
But if you started reading Bridal magazines after the fourth
date, then you definitely have different ideas about what dating
means. Without realizing it, you’ll start acting possessive
and if he’s a casual dater, it will drive him away before he
even has time to consider a commitment.
Rushing to ring shop may cause you to miss a really fine guy.
Men like to pursue women - not be trapped by them. When you
try to become attached to a man too soon, you might make compromises
that cause you to act against your beliefs.
If he’s a real player, he’ll get everything he can from you
– sex, money and adoration, but give nothing substantial in
return. Men can smell desperation and some will take advantage
of it.
Resist the urge to find a steady guy when your friends start
pairing off or getting married. Why let your prime dating years
go by without enjoying them? Dating is the ultimate “try before
you buy” experience.
You get to spend time with a man alone and among friends to
see how he fits into your life and how you fit into his. If
you date different types of men, you’re auditioning them for
the potential to be Mr. Right.
It’s not always women who are clingy and presumptuous, either.
Men can assume too much too soon and may get possessive about
you. Make it clear that you aren’t ready to commit to a monotonous
relationship if that’s the case.
