Top 10 Dating Resolutions for 2009
I ran across this top 10 dating resolutions list yesterday over at TSB Mag and thought it was worth sharing. There are pretty good tips. It was first published at Phillyist.
10. I will not be the last one to text every night when I first start flirting with someone.
9. I will not change my Facebook status to “in a relationship” within the first month of dating someone.
8. I will not get drunk on a first date.
7. I won’t keep going out with people after three dates if I’m not that into them, just because I’m bored or don’t want to be single.
6. I will wait, patiently, until my partner finishes what s/he has to say, even when I’m mad.
5. If I am single, I will put myself out there-online, on the scene and through friends-and meet new people, because variety is the spice of life.
4. If I am partnered, I will make an effort to keep the relationship interesting by trying new things together-new places for dates, new activities in the bedroom, etc.
3. I will tell my sexual partners what I want in bed, and I will not be embarrassed about my desires, fetishes and comfort level with kink.
2. I will have as much sex as I want, but I will still be careful about my health.
1. I will raise my standards and lower my expectations.

I agree with all those things except for online dating – I think it sucks! But, if it’s your only option for meeting people, use it. As long as you remember rule 1 and lower your expectations…
