Have you ever wondered why you seem to keep attracting and dating the same type of partner? I don’t want to say the “wrong partners” as I believe that in every dating and relationship experience there are lessons we are meant to learn. When you stop growing you start dying!
There are some that would never consider a long distance relationship (LDR), as for them love means the physical presence of a person in their life on a daily basis. These individuals are probably visual in their love filter and rate high in quality time as their love language.
Ok, so you have recently met someone. You definitely think this is going somewhere but something is niggling you – something feels off. They seem distracted and often “not with you” completely. They are saying they are single and not dating anyone else but you’re not convinced.
I am not disputing that there are men out there who have no issue in making Valentine’s day special for their “other half” just as there are those guys who are not so convinced. Feedback from guys as below is not uncommon:
Legend has it that Valentine’s day is named after the Christian martyr, St Valentine. He is said to have defied the Roman army’s ban on its elite soldiers marrying, by performing the ceremony in secret.
So, your gut told you something was up and you have done your homework – you’re now higher than 80% sure that you are being lied to and that there is someone else in the picture?
You’ve been told that you are the only one they are dating but you just can’t shift the feeling that there is someone else in the picture. How sure are you that you are being lied to? Is it just a feeling right now? Do you have concrete proof?
It’s Friday night and you are considering your weekend schedule. The phone is ringing and Whatsapp pinging with offers from a pool of “possibly the ones”. Many who engage in online dating don’t find it hard to get a date but are at risk of becoming serial first daters as the first date tends to not tick their boxes.
First dates are an occupational hazard for many looking for love. Some progress beyond 2nd dates into long term relationships but for many the 2nd date is a No Thanks! Reasons for this can range from the first date being boring or not clicking through to their date confessing that they did time for stalking their ex!
