Dating After Divorce: The 5 Dating Rules For Single Mums In The Dating Scene

By:


Dating for single mums can be tough. There's just so much to do and Mr. Right seems so far out of reach. You may want to be back in the dating scene, so remember these rules before you venture back in to the dating world.

1. Follow Your Instincts

Whatever mode of dating you are in; online or offline be sure to listen to your guts. If you feel uneasy around your date or that he sparks the red sparks of alarm in you then be more wary, pay more attention and deal with it accordingly. If you have met a potential match online and have chatted, but on the phone he seems different then you can decide not to meet up with him. On the other hand, your date may be fidgety and nervous on your first meet; well, that doesn't sound off your internal alarm, then you can give him a second chance.

2. Identify Red Flags

Like your gut feel and instincts, your internal alarms will also alert you on red flags- or incoming trouble. Sometimes we tend to overlook the red flags, by doing so we let inappropriate people into our lives. So pay attention to these red flags when out on your first date. For instance, you have a date who talks non-stop about their ex, sure he's a great person but he's still not ready for a relationship. You've had your share of drama so pay attention to these little red flags waving when you're out finding your match.

3. Pay attention to their actions

He may seem like the perfect match, he is attentive and a gentleman to you- until treats the waitress or the valet poorly. They may have smooth talked to you that they are really want a stable and long term relationship but their eyes keep wandering off to any woman in the room. Take note of the red flags and the gut feel about this type of guy, see if his action coincide with his words.

4. Avoid Dating Games

You have been in and out of a relationship, you should know that what goes around comes around. Respect honesty, commitment and good intentions when in a relationship or finding your match. Be honest with your comments and opinions. Call when you say you will and be honest when they ask you a question, as long as you are comfortable answering it. Be kind, considerate and genuine, expect the same in return.

5. Say "Game Over" and Mean It

To avoid getting played, then avoid playing around in dating. The reality is that there are tons of players in the dating scene. You should try and spot the players and be confident enough to say "game over" to these players. Oftentimes these players go for easy prey, they take you off guard with a backhand compliment or insult. Most likely, they'd say something like: "I'd like to buy you a drink but I know you'll just refuse", is one of the most used up lines. These players aren't genuine, they want you to let your guard down, instead of getting played at simply turn them down and say "game over" and walk away- or better yet, run. You're dating life is better off without these types of people.

While there are no ultimate dating rules for your love life, there are some guidelines that are laid out for you to have a better dating experience. By using your power of observation and following these simple steps; you avoid wasting time in dating, avoid getting played at and you'll enjoy dating more
