Can't Get A Date? - How To Break Out Of Your Dating Rut

Do you spend night after night alone? Are you tired of watching everyone around you go out on dates? Do you wonder why it is that you can't get a date and want to know how you can break out of your dating rut? If you answered yes to these questions, you are not alone. There are many people today that just can't get a date. Part of this is attributed to our busy lifestyles. Part of it is also due to our lack of human interaction. Hundreds of years ago, people only had one way of meeting people, by talking. This has now become a rare form of communication. However, despite these two obstacles, if you can't get a date, these tips can help.

Are you making an effort to look your best?

There are people that say that they can't get a date, but they never take the time to look their best. This should be a no-brainer, yet it isn't. The first opportunity that you have to make an impression on someone is through your looks. If you aren't showered, wearing clean clothes, don't have your hair done, and are wearing baggy sweats and a t-shirt, you aren't going to catch anyone's eye. No matter where you are going or what you will be doing, make the effort to look your best.

Are you approachable?

No one wants to approach someone who is telling off the waiter at the local restaurant or flipping off the convenience store teller for carding them. These kinds of behaviors will send potential dates running the other direction. Also, do you welcome others with a smile or do you glare at others? Do you curse a lot in public? These are all things to take into consideration. I am not saying to change who you are, but a brush up on your manners and how you treat others could do wonders for your romantic life.

Do you always do the same things?

"Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again but expecting different results." This famous quote applies to your dating life as well. If you go to the same places at the same time on the same day of the week, you aren't going to get different results. You are bumping into the same people at the same time at the same place on the same day of the week. Because we are creatures of habit, this is how most people behave. Although it may be uncomfortable at first, try changing up your routine some. Go to a different grocery store. Get coffee after you get off of work instead of before. Heck, go to a different coffee shop. Enrich your life with new experiences while giving yourself more opportunities to meet new people.

Do you allow fate to step in?

Many times, we are so preoccupied by our lives and our schedules that we don't even take the time to notice those that are around us. There was once a story on the news about a couple that had started dating online. Each of them kept their location anonymous. After they had "dated" for a long period of time, they finally decided that they wanted to meet. It turned out that they lived in the exact same apartment complex just a few doors away from each other. This story speaks so true of our lives today. We simply pass by hundreds of people a day. How do you know that one of them wasn't your soul-mate? Allow yourself to get into conversations with strangers. Take the time to get to know those around you. You might be surprised at what you find!
