Few people do Online Dating for a short period of time. Most spend hours and hours searching. It can take months and even years to find the right fit. What can you do to stop wasting time and find your person faster! First keep reading! I have some really good suggestions!
My clients are very busy people. They work hard and do a lot of stuff! Self care, friends and becoming a better person are important to them. It’s essential that I help them maximize their time while dating.
My First Suggestion is to Stop constantly checking to see who contacted you. Two or three times a day is enough. Chat online a couple times and then schedule a phone call or even better a video call. Do they look like, better or worse than their photos? What’s their energy like and is the conversation enjoyable? Maybe you decide it’s not worth the time to meet in person. Meeting in person adds travel time and making sure you look good!
My favorite networking tool (from business and career coaching) for expediting a search is having An Ideal (client, career, job, friend, relationship…) Profile. It will save you a lot of time and aggravation. What are your Must Haves? The Ideal Scale is 1-10. “7-10’s” are your sweet spot.
Another important time saver is to cut your losses sooner rather than later. If you discover a red flag or it just doesn’t feel right (for whatever reason) say goodbye with kindness and continue on your journey. There is no time to waste if you really really want what you are looking for.
My last suggestion is to work with a Dating Coach 🙂 Dating can be emotionally exhausting. You are excited about a “7-10” prospect and then discouraged when it doesn’t work out. Having a professional to talk to when you are feeling down or confused can be helpful and save you time!
I offer Customized Monthly Dating Coaching Packages. You may need more support in the beginning (weekly or biweekly sessions) and later go to once a month. Another option is a retainer arrangement where you pay in advance for four hours of dating coaching to use as needed.
The First Step is to schedule (send me an email) a Complimentary Consultation to determine if we are a “7-10” fit.
Take good care and Vote!!
