Rules of dating in your mid 20’s

You’ll realize real quick what you’re a fan of and what your not.

For example:

1. Your number one goal is to find out what someone’s intentions are ( do they want to date you, hang out with you as a friend or do they want to hook up?).

2. If someone isn’t as equally affectionate as you, that might be an indicator to how they are in relationships or what they lack…

3. People tell you who they are right when you meet them (in a joking manner or not) but are you listening?

4. Your patience runs thin for those who are unclear, unmotivated, and who ultimately don’t choose you. There will be others, so for now choose you! Never stay with someone because you feel like you won’t find better. There’s always better.

5. You also realize who you are and what you need/value in a relationship; Which can be translated into the 5 love languages

6. Sometimes it really is better to be alone than to be with someone who doesn’t make you feel like you’re on cloud 9.

7. Sometimes you are the problem. You gotta shift the way you think, feel and sort it all out. Once you figure it out you won’t ever go back to what was. Use your actions and the actions of others to shape you for the better!

8. Get. Out. Of. Toxic. Ass. Relationships! Take whatever you have left and leave.

9. Cherrish your family while you still can, you may not want to hear what they say half the time but they can see what you cannot when your blinders are on.

10. Last but not least, love yourself. Because no one will love you and give you exactly what you need when you need it except for you. Accept nothing less, don’t settle, and be better than you were yesterday.
