Three
things to never do when dating in the twenty-first century
It's difficult to date
strangers and hopes that the next person you meet will be your soul match. Read
on if you've been going into cafés with high hopes just to leave disappointed
and without a second date. We explore woke dating to learn some of the
unwritten guidelines that can improve your first impression. So, let's look at
some of the main attitudes and actions you should shun when dating in the
twenty-first century.
Being
a showoff or shallow
The days of judging
someone solely by their appearance are long gone. Although dressing up for a
date is something you choose to do, you also need to be ready to accept and
love the flawed person who lies beneath the beautiful makeup. Above all, don't
assume you can body shame your date because they are not the size you desired
in a partner. Keep in mind that showing someone respect is free of charge.
Statements
or actions that are homophobic
This is a major issue. A
long time ago, in the name of situational humor, the media or motion pictures
did not hesitate to make homophobic jokes. This is no longer the case, though. To
avoid making insensitive comments about our LGBT community while on a date, you
must maintain your composure and educate yourself.
Ø Preconceptions
based on gender
Remember to avoid using
gender-based prejudices as well. Don't advise that your date give up her career
after marriage, for example, or imply that a woman's place is only in the
kitchen. And when it comes to males, don't make fun of them for wearing makeup
or picking pink-colored clothing. Keep in mind that, among other things, it is
completely appropriate for men to crossdress and for women to work while their
husbands are at home.
You'll be astonished at
how a new relationship can enrich your life if you approach your date with an
open mind.
