Dating isn't primary about attraction or good feelings of connection. It's about sorting!

What are your dealbreakers, and deal-makers? Dating can help you figure out more of these. I talked to a guy who didn't like physical touch, potatoes, or chewing... I love or enjoy all of these, but hadn't realized I needed to put them on my lift before talking to him. I'd never thought of it until then, but I actually enjoy the sound of snapping carrots and chewing potato chips.

Don't settle if what you really want is a life partner. Be strategic and selective, go on lots of dates, but actually get to know the person, don't just play on your emotions.

This is what my husband had been doing for a long time, and I'd only just started doing, when we came across each other, and he realized I was the first woman in a quite some time that he even wanted to ask out on a second date... and then some 😎 but had he not been sorting, figuring out what he actually wanted, he might not have known that I would be a great choice for him.
