Dating is pressured enough without having to add rules in to the mix. But if you\u2019re planning on dating success there are some rules\u00a0that daters need to live by – especially when you\u2019re in the early stages of getting to know someone.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Don\u2019t be needy! <\/b>Unless there\u2019s something wrong with the guy you\u2019re dating then no one likes needy. There\u2019s nothing wrong with being an independent woman so suppress any feelings of neediness and woman up. Of course we\u2019re not saying that you can\u2019t show you vulnerable side once you\u2019re fully in to your relationship but whilst you\u2019re dating this is something that doesn\u2019t need to be on display.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Quit the negativity. <\/b>Unless you want to attract a negative person then we suggest that you quit being negative yourself asap! Complaining and being negative is toxic and you don\u2019t want that when you\u2019re trying to spark off love so realise that your man friend isn\u2019t like your best mate where you can sit in joggers, shoving ice cream in to your mouth being bitchy about almost everything, you need to keep a positive mind and bring sunshine with you when you\u2019re on dates.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Let yourself be chased.<\/b> We don\u2019t mean this in the Benny Hill sense more than blokes like to pursue. Now we\u2019re all for independent women (cough see above) but even if you\u2019ve initiated the date let him do some of the work. Be careful not to come across as aloof or offish if you try this tactic mind, he has to know that you like him but just keep how much from him until you\u2019re sure he really is that in to you.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Have fun.<\/b> Let\u2019s be honest, as much as people say that dating is hard or scary it is actually quite awesome. You\u2019re experiencing a time in your life where you can experience new things, meeting new people and just get yourself out there with no ties or commitment. So make sure that you have fun! Laugh, joke and goof around – by not taking dating seriously you\u2019re going to enjoy yourself a lot more.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Remember: You\u2019re not trying to get him to LIKE you, you\u2019re seeing whether YOU LIKE HIM. <\/b>Seriously, don\u2019t bend over backwards to get someone to like you, you\u2019re looking for someone who suits you and if you\u2019re having to try too hard to impress then listen up, it ain\u2019t gonna work! If he makes you feel good and treats you well then he\u2019s a keeper, if he doesn\u2019t then show him the door – even if it\u2019s a virtual one.<\/p>\n
