Dating tips: Step #1
Do not date unless you are ready for marriage.
That may sound archaic especially in this time and age when even high school girls get online and start a relationship with more than one guy. But it's the safest way to live.
Dating brings two people together. They become friends. After that what?
Experience shows that two people . . . man and woman . . . don't just stay friends. Many times the relationship goes deeper than anticipated eventually resulting in sexual behaviour.
If you are not old enough to start a family, do not toil with dating. It could ruin your life as you know it today.
Dating tips: Step #2
Mix with the right crowd.
It is a fact that people end up falling in love with those with whom they have repeated exposure. When you spend so much time with someone, you may begin to like the person despite your initial aversion during your first meeting.
I'm sure you're familiar with this kind of attraction.
Consider this.

A family friend, Mary, was seriously considering settling down to family life. Her friend, Elena, informed her that there was a guy she knew who was also seriously considering settling down. Elena then offered to arrange a meeting. Mary was annoyed that Elena would even suggest such a thing because the man in question stammers and she couldn't imagine herself being married to a man who stammers. Several years later, Mary voluntarily |
Mary's parents raised eyebrows when she first introduced him to the family, but there was no stopping her.
What made Mary change her mind?
Well, he and the man in question had a chance meeting. Soon she discovered they had a lot in common. Soon it didn't matter anymore that he stammered. And soon, she was madly in love with him.
Mary started to see intrinsic qualities in him she hadn't noticed from a distance. And so, she fell in love with him.
What does this tell you?
You are likely to fall in love with someone within your circle of friends or your circle of influence. Therefore, keep only the best friends. Hang out with only best of breed, best of character people.
If you fall in love with the wrong person, stopping you from going ahead with the marriage will be almost impossible. You know the way it is. People in love tend to be obstinate and want their love to win.
My advice?
Move with only the best. Fall in love with the best. That way you guarantee your eternal happiness.
Now, let's move faster.
Dating tips: Step #3
Determine before hand what you really want.
You want true love. You want everlasting love. Don't waste time with a man who cannot measure up to what you want. Move on.
Dating tips: Step #4
Get to know him.
This is the part where you match his person to yours. Are you compatible in principles and values?
If you are not, there is no use wasting his time or yours. Call it off.
Dating tips: Step #5
Visit his family. Have dinner with him and his family.
Okay, he passed the test. It's time to learn something about his background.
What values operate in his family? Family values tend to be passed on from one generation to the next with few exceptions. He is likely to inherit some of the traits of his family.
Now it is time to find out.
Visit his family. Have dinner with the family along with your man. If possible, arrange to spend a weekend with his family. Get to know them. Remember, they are going to be around you all your life if you marry their son.
Dating tips: Step #6
What does your man want out of this relationship?
You should actually have asked him that at the very start.
The truth is . . . some women don't ask. They just feel the man they love is interested in taking the relationship to the next level for him to be dating them.
well, here's some bad news.
Some men date for the fun of it. It gives them a feeling of authority to be able to command the attention of any woman they want and see her falling over them. So, ask your man. What are his intentions?
If he is not interested in sticking with you to build an enduring relationship, fire him. You shouldn't keep a love relationship that serves a man's selfish interests.
I told you before.
Dating is serious business. Dating is for only those who are searching for a partner to stay with for life. If you are not ready yet, don't toil with dating. You will only hurt someone's emotions . . . his or yours.
I hope these dating tips have been of some help.
