\"Woman<\/a><\/p>\n

When you\u2019re actively looking for your ideal love match, it can be tricky to know whether to date one person at a time, or to cast your net wide and explore multiple connections simultaneously.<\/p>\n

Back in the day, it was considered the norm to meet someone and to take your time dating, so that you could assess how things were naturally developing. The more modern, smarter approach of multi-dating however, gives you the freedom to explore all of your options at once, before you become too invested in any.<\/p>\n

On You\u2019ve Pulled \u2013 it\u2019s super easy and fun to chat and flirt<\/a> with friendly guys and girls from all over the country. You can connect with as many people as you wish, and get to know them at your own pace. Should you decide that you want to meet in person, it\u2019s entirely up to you whether you date one, two or a few at the same time!<\/p>\n

Multi-dating is more fun<\/strong><\/h2>\n

At the start of your exploratory dating phase, there\u2019s really no need to stick to old-fashioned dating traditions and customs. Being able to compare your options, by dating more than one person at a time, makes perfect sense as it\u2019s the smartest way to discover what type of person aligns with your values.<\/p>\n

When dating one person at a time, the experience can sometimes seem laborious, and even boring. Date nights with your one and only potential suitor could end up feeling as exciting as a multiple stage job interview, with the exception that this one\u2019s designed solely to evaluate romantic partnership potential. After many weeks of dating the same person you could end up realising that they\u2019re not the ideal candidate after all. You\u2019ll then have to commit to starting the dating process all over again.<\/p>\n

Having a strategic plan to date more than one person means that you\u2019re focusing on enjoying the social experience of dating. If you\u2019re not sure if Person A is a great match, you can compare them to Person B or C, or cut your losses and keep your options open.<\/p>\n

Multi-dating<\/a> empowers you to choose what\u2019s right and best for you, and teaches you not to settle for what\u2019s easy, predictable or incompatible.<\/p>\n

No more over-investing<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Most people tend to put all of their eggs in one basket, when playing the dating game. It\u2019s common practice to be single-target focused, once you\u2019ve clicked with someone who\u2019s taken your fancy. From the moment that a hopeless romantic has agreed to meet on a first date, they\u2019re already investing into a relationship that may never develop or blossom.<\/p>\n

Instead of over-investing, and setting yourself up for eventual disappointment or heartache, consider trying multi-dating. When you date more than one person at a time, you\u2019re sampling what\u2019s on offer without making any kind of commitment. You can date out of your comfort zone, and connect with people that you wouldn\u2019t usually assume are your type. Zero emotional investing gives you the ultimate power of choice.<\/p>\n

If your dating style is anxious attachment and you tend to fall for someone too deep, too quickly, multiple-dating allows you easily shrug off anyone who turns out to be unsuitable. It additional gives you space to explore relationship variables and to date in a manner that suits your personality, needs\/wants and lifestyle.<\/p>\n

Keeping your options open during the early stages of dating significantly improves your chances of long-term relationship success.<\/p>\n

Be emotionally independent<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Until you\u2019re sure that you\u2019ve clicked with a good life partner candidate, it\u2019s a good idea to prioritise yourself. Dating multiple people at the same time ensures that you\u2019re emotionally independent. This attractive quality is super magnetic to potential suitors, so you\u2019ll need to get organised when you have several dating options on the table.<\/p>\n

As an emotionally independent person, you\u2019re free to exercise your power of choice and to agree to date whomever you fancy. But you\u2019ll need to master calendar coordination, remember personal details and background information on each of your suitors, and maintain a positive outlook.<\/p>\n

Whether you\u2019re checking out potential matches on You\u2019ve Pulled or chatting and flirting with attractive strangers socially, as an emotionally independent person who is focused on their own needs and wants, what happens next is entirely your choice.<\/p>\n

You don\u2019t have to make up your mind about anyone you date, straight away. Some suitors will make it easy for you by \u2018dropping off\u2019 after the first date or two, while others will give you something to think about. Being honest with yourself and with the people you date, about what you\u2019re looking for, and letting them know that you\u2019re keeping your options open, is the quickest way of finding the One you\u2019re searching for.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
