More On Dating

We have been learning a lot in class about the proper and most effective way to date.

To get to know the people you are dating there are three things you should do.

1. Talk- if you talk you will be able to have a mutual self-disclosure. This is where you are able to feel safe explaining and sharing experiences and traits about yourself with your significant other. As you do this, your significant other can do the same.

2. Togetherness- You should spend time in a wide range of activities. There are many benefits to doing just this. You can get to know your partner in any number of circumstances. My grandpa has always told me that if you want to get to know the true side of man, take him on a road trip and camping, preferably at the same time. I am assuming you want to spend your life with someone that is able to handle situations effectively.

3. Time- Time will tell many things. It has been studied and found that it take 3 months of knowing someone to truly begin to see them as they are. How long have you been dating your significant other?

As you date it is important to be smart about who, what, when and how much dating you do. Dating is preparation for marriage, and that is something that we must realize.
