What Not to Do When Dating

Want to know what not to do when dating? Here are some pointers:

Seduction can be enticing but everyone has a threshold for how many mind games they can absorb in one relationship.  Seduction is common in the early stages of dating but as a relationship becomes serious, more emphasis is placed on reality instead of fantasy.  Keeping secrets is not sexy forever and hot and cold personality shifts eventually become very trying.  In other words, too much game playing can be exhausting, perhaps even hurtful, to people who is looking for true love, not just constant fun.

Another issue to consider is that of going after the wrong person.  Face it, many relationships end simply because the two lovers are not compatible with one another.  This is not so much a problem with behavior by either mate, as it is a problem with not seeing the "red flags" early on in a budding relationship.  Unfortunately, many lovers go mad trying to do the impossible: make a doomed relationship work.

When couples make too many reckless choices early on in a relationship, this can be foreboding for the future.  Relationships should be approached carefully.  In a relationship, you are dealing with two very delicate egos and an entire lifetime of bliss that rests upon just a few pivotal months of introduction.  Relationships that are rushed into without much thought usually crumble over time.  Reckless behaviors by both partners can also cause friction in the relationships.  For the best results, consider a relationship like a new organism - one that needs a strong foundation of trust before it can thrive.
