If you are sick and tired of not finding “the one” or if you feel as though there is something more out there, then these tips should help you to access a whole new world that’s full of dating potential. They will definitely transform your dating life.
Go Beyond the Bar Scene
You never know when you are going to meet the person of your dreams, so don’t limit yourself to bars. You might meet someone at a fun run, or even when going to a museum. Love has a way of cropping up in the most unlikely of places, so get out there and always make sure that you keep your eyes open.
Let your Friends do the Work
Your friends probably know you more than anyone, so let them do the setup for you. When you do, you will have a higher level of familiarity and comfort, not to mention that there’s a high chance that your date has already been “vetted” to some extent. If your friends are setting you up, then make sure that you don’t put too much pressure on them. Sometimes there will be chemistry, and other times there won’t and there is nothing wrong with this.
Date your Friends and Transform your Dating Life
Someone in your friend’s circle probably already has similar values to you, and they may also know your background too. There’s a chance that you already feel comfortable with them, and as a lot of people say, friendship really is the foundation for a good relationship. For this reason, it can help to look for someone who you already have that connection with.
Choose a Good Dating Site
The best thing about dating sites is that it gives you the chance to really get to know someone before you commit. You can list your preferences, and you can also find someone who is able to match your interests too. This will stop you from wasting your time and it will also put less pressure on the situation in general. If you are concerned about listing your status on a dating site because you are technically married but separated, then look into family solicitors and always be honest with the other person right from the get-go.
Focus on First Impressions
First dates can be overwhelming to say the least. For this reason, you need to focus on making a really good impression. Make eye contact, smile and try and pay attention to what the other person is saying. This will help you to know if there is potential for a relationship and it will also help you to know if there is anything that you can do to make that special connection. Sure, nerves can sometimes take over and this is normal, but if you be yourself then this will make the whole process way easier.
Don’t Play it Cool
Sure, playing it cool might sound like a good idea but it’s really not. Playing hard to get or just not acting interested in general won’t be doing you any favours and it may even sabotage your date. Try and focus on being open and welcoming as much as possible.
What do you think of these dating tips? Do you think they will transform your dating life?
This is so great for those who are dating. I am married so I don’t think my husband would appreciate if I went on a dating app, ha.
Yea it is for those dating Amber.
Some great information here. I’m fortunate in that I’ve had my partner for over 8 years now, and I honestly couldn’t imagine going back onto the dating scene.
Yes the information here is purely for those in the dating scene.
I am long out of the dating scene, and I never quite got the idea of going alone to a bar. Now there are many dating apps that can make the introduction part so much easier.
Yes good the sites are available for those who need them.
Oddly enough, I met my spouse on Hot or Not. So silly but I am so lucky. Thanks for sharing!
Ah lovely!
Dating sure is hard lol, but I love hearing stories about how two people have crossed paths and lives intertwine. Great tips!
Thank you.
This are great tips for someone who are trying to get back on their game or just trying to find a partner. First impressions last so it is very important to create a good first impression but don’t over do it by trying to be something your not.
Thanks Alvin.
I think that having your friends set you up is a great idea, especially if they know some wonderful people. Getting into the dating scene can be overwhelming, but I think the more you put yourself out there and go to social events.. the more likely you are to meet someone decent for sure.
That’s a good idea too!
These are such great tips for those who are still dating. I am married but I would love to share this to a single friend.
Please do. Thanks.
Those are some great tips especially it you are looking for a date since dating is quite hard. For me, having a good first impression is quite important.
Yes it is.
good advice, for me it has also a lot to do with prayer. I’m a Christian so I felt at peace with letting God lead me. I found my husband. 🙂
Oh lovely.
Well, I’ve been with my husband since we were 21 and we started out as friends for a few years, so I’m definitely an advocate for that tip 😉
Oh lovely 😊
These are great tips for anyone on the dating scene! I never understood why people thought they would meet someone at the bar, especially if looking for something serious. I met my husband at a party held by a friend of a friend that I didn’t know well. I almost didn’t go since my friend wasn’t going as she was out of town but opted to go on a whim.
Good you went 😀
I think focusing on first impressions goes both ways. Of course you want to put your best foot forward on a first date, but you also want to pay attention to the impression the other person is giving off. People will tell and show you who they are if you just look and listen.
So true Cindy.
I’ve yet to find a good dating site, if there is such a thing. I’ve tried a couple of them but most people don’t seem interested in dating lol
Really? That is weird on a dating site.
Great tips. I’m newly single and a little nervous about getting back out there. It’s been 3 years! This gave me some ideas, though.
Thanks!
Thanks. Good luck with it all.
I’m so happy I don’t have to deal with any dating scene at this point. Your tips are great for someone dipping their toes on the dating pool.
Thanks Patricia.

Hi fashionandstylepolice, I love how these tips focus on being real and authentic. I am a strong believer that you attract the energy that you put out. So if you play games with someone in dating, they will obviously play games back. That’s not good, unless that’s what you’re looking for. It’s important to be yourself and show all of the amazing qualities you have, so that you will attract the right relationship for you.
I agree. Thanks for reading 😊
This is well not true. I’m honest with a profile. I’ve tried to just chat. How can a person know someone eith out meeting? Humm. Most dating sites I’ve been on I get scam update of likes or want to meet so I get a paid membership to find out there was no like. So I canceled immediately match ehormony not kewl. My experience. I like this site chat. It’s nice to read thought on dating. The female thought…thanks
