Some people seem to have better luck with dating than others. Some people seem to find their perfect match within a few weeks of dating, whereas for others it may seem like they are trying everything and just racking up the numbers by meeting potential partners that are unsuitable. Being successful when dating is partly due to luck, but the other part is strategy. I want to share 4 tips that will boost your dating success.
Keep an open mind
It’s fine to set a preference of what you think you would like. But more often than not, the partner who will blow your mind is the person who you will least expect. So it isn’t fair to be dismissive if someone doesn’t have the right height or job requirements. You want to find that special someone who sets off a spark in your heart. That can only come from a person who is constantly revealing new things to you and has you expecting unexpected surprises. If you only go for someone that you can know inside out, some ‘element of surprise’ will miss from your dating relationship.
Make the first move
Many people are afraid to make the first move when searching for their ideal partner. A man might see a girl he knows he will fall head over heels for or a woman the same, however those same people that have a vested interest in the person miss their opportunity by not even going up to them and engaging in a conversation. People will try to court someone’s attention by making eye contact. However, nothing is better than engaging in a direct conversation with people. For example, some of the most effective ways for meeting people are:
- Sending direct messages to people on dating websites or apps.
- Approaching people in public.
- Inviting people to an event, like a party.
- Calling a person directly if you have their phone number.
Go with your sixth sense
Married couples always say that when they found ‘the one’, they “just knew” that they were the perfect person to spend the rest of their life with. You might have a checklist of all the things that will make your partner perfect, but ultimately there will be a little voice inside you telling you whether you should go forward with that person. Listen closely to that voice, as it will help you find the love and happiness that you are seeking.

See if there are any friends around you that are hinting at you to be more
It’s likely that the perfect person who you are looking for is someone is in your life right now. You might have someone that is a ‘best friend’, who has all the qualities you are looking for in a potential suitor. Look around to see which friends of yours might have a love-interest in you and give them a chance.
Sometimes, the best things in life happen when you least expect it. When it comes to finding love, it’s important to create and seize opportunities when they arise. Taking a chance for a moment with someone could lead to a lifetime full of happiness. Then your next challenge will be announcing your engagement.
