We are living in a world that is moving very fast and as a result our entire life has to adapt with these changes. Vast amounts of information are now readily available on the net which means that we need to filter information more rapidly than ever before. If we don’t keep up with this information highway, we find ourselves lacking in substance and others will quickly lose interest in us. Much of this can also apply to the dates we find in our everyday life.

If you don’t create the right impression in the first date, you don’t break a sweat because you know there will be plenty of fish in the sea. Such superficial attention to detail can mean that you will be attracting the wrong types of date. This is where the old traditional way of dating can be a good thing. Let’s think about this for a moment. You are in this wave of constant movement where time is too short and you constantly find yourself moving and you naturally look for the same thing in your date. If he/she cannot keep up with your speed of light thought processes, you are moving on and you leave the date wondering whatever happened. Wrong thing to do!

You need to take a step back and ask yourself that if you did find someone who is equally matched to your lifestyle, will it be a good fit. Most definitely, the match would not work and here are the reasons. Firstly, the person you are dating also has a similar agenda to yourself and this means that you will be in constant loggerheads with each other prying for each others attention. What you need is a person completely polarized to your own lifestyle ie. someone who takes time and ponders about life and makes decisions carefully. You may feel that person is going to weigh you down, but in contrary this person is actually going to help you to regain your normal posture, balance and bring you into a more meditative space in time. This will empower you more in other activities where you need it most.

Learn from the old traditional way of dating where partners complement each other in their qualities and lifestyle rather than finding a true 100% match.
