Make this year, your year!

A new year can herald a new attitude to life and to dating... why not dare to be different and say yes to people and places that offer a whole new experience?

We’re slowly settling in to 2019, so how are those New Year resolutions coming on? This could be the perfect time to think about your dating life, so why not mix it up a little and try something different? Some late resolutions could change your whole perspective on dating!

‘I will be more open minded’

It’s a simple one really – date people you wouldn’t normally date, do things you wouldn’t normally do. We’re sure most people scroll through countless profiles trying to find that ‘perfect fit’, but don’t be so quick to reject people! Get to know people who aren’t your usual type, say yes to people you normally wouldn’t, you never know where it could lead! This also counts for dates at restaurants, cinemas, bars... why not try somewhere different? Variety is good, being different is good and people find this attractive.

‘I will be the first to make a move’

Have you ever been too nervous to make that first move and spent ages waiting for a message that never comes through? This year, try sending that first message – what’s the worst that could happen? Being spontaneous is a great thing and it’s bound to be the start of many successful conversations, so never be afraid to make the first move.

‘I will enjoy dating’

Get excited for each and every date, banish those nerves and high expectations and just focus on having a great time. Dating is about meeting new people and having fun, don’t worry if it doesn’t lead to more; just make the most of the situation and have a good time! Think of your dates as getting to know a new friend as this will take the pressure off and allow you to relax and enjoy the moment.
