Cupid’s Advice:
Being in a relationship is a 50/50 commitment, but that doesn’t mean that you have to lose control of who you are. Â When dating, you have to be able to have the courage to say “no” to what you don’t want and say “yes” to new experiences:
1. Date on your terms: Date when you’re ready, and date who you want to. Â Don’t necessarily rule out blind dates, but don’t force yourself to look for love where it isn’t a chance of it happening.
2. Know when to say “no”: Sometimes we get comfortable with a partner and are scared to let go when we feel that the relationship is not going right. Â If you’re not happy, the relationship will fail.
3. Say “yes”: Don’t turn down the chance to go on a date with someone you probably wouldn’t have thought of getting to know. Â If you’re in a relationship, don’t be afraid to say “yes” to trying new things to keep your love life fresh.
