With New Years Day almost upon us, I'm curious if anyone has any resolutions in terms of dating or relationships? It could be anything from talking to more people and getting out of your comfort zone to bringing more romance to an existing relationship. I'll start talking to more women and see if any of those interactions turn into actual dates.

No dating/sex until I am independent and stable. That's mine.

I've got a couple but first I'll start with a story.

 

As I'm sure everybody knows, my ex broke up with me roughly six months ago and I've been in a total funk.

 

Anyways this morning I went to the market to buy some stuff and I saw a girl that I had been interested in before and we had a salsa class together (actually the same class where I met my ex). I wanted to talk to her but I didn't for a couple of reasons. One, I hadn't shaved in a few days, I hadn't taken a shower yet so my hair was a mess and I was still wearing the shirt I slept in so I probably smelled as well.

 

So I came up with two resolutions so far.

 

#1 Whenever I go out, always look presentable no matter where the hell I'm going. It doesn't matter if I'm going to the gas station, I will make sure I look good and smell nice.

 

#2 If I ever come across a girl I know, I will talk to her even if I don't remember her name.

 

Because I did not go up to her and say hello, I will not have sex with her tonight. I'm not saying that if I did say hi and talk for a few minutes that I would sleep with her, but the fact that I didn't talk to her, means that I made it impossible for it to happen.

Egads, In today's economy, you may never get laid.

I decided about 2 weeks ago to only date men this year who own a pet. I have 3 dogs and have always owned dogs and/or cats. In my dating history I have never dated a fellow pet-owner; my bf's have either pretended to like my animals or just disregarded them altogether. So, that's my new dating resolution for 2014 - men with pets only!

Just to find a girlfriend that actually wants to be around me.

 

A daunting task with the shape of the current dating pool but I will give it a shot nonetheless.

 

Also, to lose my virginity.

Mine aren't so much about dating, but more about my condition to date:

 

- stop overthinking the little things

- start dating more...ie more first dates

- back to the gym steadily..slacked the last month or so

My dating resolutions:

 

  • don't get attached too quickly
  • actually take the time to get to know someone before you enter a relationship with them
  • postpone all physical contact to after you have been dating for at least a month
  • be honest and upfront from the start, don't be afraid to ask important questions or stating what you want because you are afraid of 'scaring them away'

Allowing myself to say 'no' and verbalize what I really want in all areas of life, but especially in relationships.

Just realized that I don't have any :eek:
