When you first start dating someone that you think could be the one you want to end up with forever, there are some huge mistakes that can derail that relationship. It can be easy to do all the right things when you don't care as much about what will happen next, but when that special one crosses your path, nerves and uncertainty can cause you to make some bad choices. These tips can help you make the most of your dating relationships when you feel it is important to make all the right moves. Dating seems tricky, but finding the right person is not mission impossible, as it may seem.
No one have a magic formula to make dating relationships what they should be all of the time. Humans make mistakes, and those mistakes are bound to come up during a date here and there. Humans are as forgiving as they are prone to mistakes, so if you are with the right one, those mistakes are not going to be as big as they could be. However, there are some deal breakers in dating relationships that can really turn off the other person, leaving you wondering what happened.
One of the most debated things in dating relationships is when to make that first call after the first date. Now that we have texting, email, and social networking sites, the time to contact the person again is even more confusing in nature. If you call right after the date, the person may get scared off, even if they like you. If you wait too long, they may have already written you off as a game player. What can you do? Perhaps a short text right after the date about how much fun you had and then call the next night or the day after. This won't always be the best idea, but it is not bad. Read the person and then decide.
Moving in too fast, in other ways than with the phone call, can also scare someone off, even if they like you. Getting too close to fast is uncomfortable for many. Take it easy and slow, even if you are falling head over heels fast, and go by their cues. If you really listen to them or pay attention to their body language, you can tell when you can move faster or when they need some space. That 'can't get enough of you' phase will come soon enough if you take it easy and play it cool. Don't play games in dating relationships, but don't seem needy either so the person feels overwhelmed.
Lastly, don't make assumptions about your dating relationships. If you have not had 'the talk' yet, do not assume that the other is going to be okay with you dating others. On the other hand, don't assume that the relationship is exclusive if you have not talked about it. It can be tricky. Some treat all dating relationships as exclusive until they know if it is going to work out or not to avoid all problems. If you are dating around, make sure the other knows it so they can decide if they want to be involved or not. Otherwise, you could end up liking them a lot but they walk away because you were not honest with them.
