Have Fun While Waiting it Out

Following the sane sex model for dating requires that we postpone physical intimacy until we are emotionally intimate with someone. Emotional intimacy is not quick or easy to achieve, so the wait may feel endless. In our technologically advanced world, wait times seem to get shorter and shorter. (Do you remember having to wait for the television to warm up before the picture would appear?) How do we wait it out successfully?

One approach I learned to take to was to make sure I was having fun. Unlike some people who date, I did have a goal of meeting the love of my life, pretty serious stuff. Being a goal-oriented person like most entrepreneurs, I had to pay attention to how I was feeling. I realized that if I wasn’t having fun, I wasn’t going to be any fun to be around, and people want to have fun when they’re dating. I promised myself to relax more and let events unfold as they would. If after spending time somewhere I found I wasn’t enjoying myself, I honored my feelings and left. Over time, I started to draw men to me who had values and interests similar to mine. This made dating more enjoyable and I was able to have fun, even if my date wasn’t the love of my life.

Are you having a good time dating? If you’re not meeting people you enjoy being with, change it up. Over the years I’ve heard stories of people meeting their partner in every conceivable place. Stay open and light-hearted. Be the kind of person people want to be with and have fun.
