The countdown is on for New Year’s Eve, which means that 2011 is soon upon us. Many of us spend some time at the end of every year to reflect on our lives and make resolutions for the New Year. One of my tips for dating in 2011 is for you to learn from your past dating history so that you can move forward with your current dating life.
Think about the past year and consider your dating and relationship experiences. Then make a list of what did not work out for you. Whether you joined a dating site that didn’t yield the results you had hoped for or had a relationship that did not move forward, you can learn a lot from the past year’s failures.
One of my key tips for dating in 2011 is to take some time to think about why these things did not work for you and make adjustments in considering who would be a good partner for you.
Maybe you picked a dating site that doesn’t work for you even though it is the popular one that several of your friends referred to, rather than the one that is more geared toward your goals and interests.
Or you may want to reevaluate what groups you have attending to meet people, and if it is worth your time. Perhaps you found that in your most recent relationship, there were misaligned goals or miscommunication on your relative “must-haves.”
Whatever the case, determining WHY such things did not work out for you will help you to move forward and to make better choices in the New Year.
Once you determine where you’ve been, you will have a better idea of where you want to be and, quite possibly, how to get there. So my top New Years tip for dating is that you spend some time reflecting on the past year’s dating history in order to inform you about what you need in a future life partner to have a fulfilling relationship.
What are you willing to commit to for yourself for the New Year? Do you have a list of “Must Haves”?
