Linda,
Oh my gosh, girl! You've taken the phrase "play hard to get"
to a whole new level!
There are certain things you said that I agree with. Don't invite
him in, yes, don't accept an invitation, yes. Okay, that's fair.
Especially on the first few dates. Yes, we all must be willing to
have our heart broken.
But:
Know the Other's Mind Before Getting Physical
Date for a long time before getting physical... it never occured
to me to do it any other way. It takes time to know the other person,
and I would rather make love than have sex. You can't do that without
knowing the person's MIND intimately.
Telling Him To Date Others Will Push Him Away
Tell him to date others? Um, you're supposed to be getting to know
each other... that might really push the guy away to hear that.
Compromise
We all want to keep our lives, but you know what? With a good relationship
comes certain compromises, and you may very well not want to go
to the raquet club every Friday anymore. Every other, perhaps, so
you can join your date at the theater.
Make-Out Sessions Don't have To Lead To Sex
Not every make out session leads to heavy petting or sex. That's
the honest truth. Sometimes some people just like to spend a long
time sharing long, languishing kisses. It can be even more intimate
and passionate than sex.
Never Lower Your Standards
And never ever ever lower your standards! You deserve the best,
everyone does.
Dating can be fun. Just relax and enjoy it. You might find that
after the first date you are both considering a relationship with
the other; it may take 10 dates; it may never happen. Take things
as they come.
– Jennae
