Dating Dilemmas
Moving into the dating phase of a relationship is an extremely exciting time. It can be the start of something very special that will last a lifetime or the start of something very special, which doesn’t last a lifetime. Or, on the other hand it could be the start of nothing and one big let down.
Relationships are a powerful way for us to learn about ourselves. When our love antennas are up and in focus, we do things and act in ways that we never thought possible. Relationships can highlight qualities in our characters that we never even knew we had. It can bring out the very best in us or highlight the snarliest sides of us.
Dating is an integral part of the relationship and it progresses in stages. When we first meet someone, we are on our best behavior. It’s all very exciting and we have that exhilarating feeling of anticipation. After you’ve been dating for a while, the curiosity stage follows and we’re interested in everything about them. Then we start to get comfortable with our partners and we allow ourselves to be our normal selves and relax with each other. Next comes the settling in stage, then the commitment stage. Unfortunately, both parties don’t always arrive at the settling in and the commitment stage at the same time. This is where we can run into trouble, not to mention that all the stages along the way have there own personal pit falls too. Try to enjoy each stage of dating, along the way.
