We are all familiar with the dating game. People will try to play it cool and avoid showing too much interest too soon. They will also continue to see other people, which adds the element of becoming "exclusive" with someone before even starting to date. All of these added steps can make it harder to find someone willing to go through all of that to find someone.

But let's be real, everyone wants to find someone. Nothing can be done to change the dating game, but you can change how you tackle it and ultimately become a dating mastermind. 

Reddit users are convinced that the early dating stages are filled with lies about how people are feeling and typically dating behaviors. Because of this, we Cheezcakers recommend figuring out your intentions for dating and being upfront about them early on in the relationship. This will help you and your partner avoid heartbreak, especially since you were going to discover that you are incompatible in one way or another by having different intentions for the relationship. This will also weed out a lot of the wrong choices and potentially help you meet your match!

    Font - HooterEnthusiast 13 hr. ago Sometimes you can be, but initially it's a lie. You need to let that pain die first, that takes some time and distance. Seeing someone you love, choose someone else is always going to sting. Reply Share 74 ↓ ✩74

    Font - CrystalDa3h 12 hr. ago Probably everyone saying they aren't attractive. Attractiveness is subjective. I remembered seeing a post one day that said "If you don't find yourself attractive, you probably just aren't your own type." It's stuck with me. Sure, I don't think I'm attractive, but that doesn't mean everyone finds me unattractive. My boyfriend and I harp on each other for calling ourselves ugly all the time. ↑4 ↓ Reply Share
