Is it hard for you to stay positive while dating? For many people, dating can be frustrating. You go on first dates with men who lied about their age and bore you to death with endless stories about themselves. And then, you finally see someone online with potential. Nice looking, seems pretty ‘normal’, interesting, bright, and fun. You do a little happy dance. You start a conversation on Bumble or Tinder, Match or OkCupid. You exchange a few texts or emails, and then…radio silence. Argh!

Or, you go on a first date, and you have a great time. Conversation flows. You even make out at the end of the date. You agree to see each other again. And then…poof! He disappears. Oh no!

It’s natural to want to stop dating. There are obviously no quality people to date. And you’d rather be single than settle, right? Women get cats and men go to the gym or bar seven days a week.

Well, it doesn’t have to be that way. There really are wonderful quality people to date.

Don’t give up! The challenge is to keep on going, maintain your self-esteem, and stay positive. And if you put the following 4 tips into practice, it will help you enjoy the journey to true love.

Is online dating just a numbers game? My guest blogger says this approach can be detrimental to finding love. Find out why…

—

It pains me greatly whenever I read about or listen to men cite—usually in annoyed tones—the precise number of dates they’ve been on through an online dating site. “It’s all a numbers game,” they say with frustration and annoyance. They’ll quote a number relative to the allotted time they’ve been online—six months, one year, as in, “I’ve been on 56 dates in ten months and…nothing!” And then I wince. Is online dating really just a numbers game? (In all fairness, I’m sure there are some women out there who follow this same approach to dating.)
