Dating rules 101

Why do you say so? I'm a man too, worked out fine for me

He is a consultant - he must know

I've been dating for a decade, practiced enough :)

Also need to study algo changes in apps. They change every once in a while.

Enlighten us sensei

I have 😂 never imagined I would tbh. Wanted to marry my first gf, but she ended up cheating on me. Then I started using dating apps, never looked back since.

Maybe she was fade-up with your dating skills..and she found a better guy than you...😀

Learnt them the hard way haha, hopefully others can use it well

And you think gym bodies aren't superficial? 😂

Everyone should work on themselves constantly. But that doesn't mean you can't look for dates at the same time. Partners help you improve too, sometimes they're even better motivation than anything else.

What's superficial about building your health which has quantum benefits on other aspects of your life?

You clearly don't know the definition of superficial.

Dating is good and fine no doubt. But the above list is for someone who is willing to spend a considerable amount of time and energy on it. That is NOT good for a young person.

Sure keep an open mind and look for a good partner but you're much much better off focusing inwards.

Hain? 🤣

Tell me man, what to do ?

Dating in the Indian context doesn't always involve hookups though.

Also, relationship contract? 😂 Are you a lawyer or something

When you are in live-in with a female. It's best if you have things documented. A contract would definitely help protect individual rights and maintain equality. I know my response is too blunt but it's the reality. It's needed to avoid years of legal trouble.

Thanks :)

Point 5 comes handy if you've dated a bit, not really for newbies who don't even know what to expect. But not tolerating violence, weird behaviour or disrespect is already 3 points that everyone should enforce mandatorily. There are usually more.

As for your friends, it's good they found someone but a month or two is very less time to know someone. I'd wait for their marriages to reach the 5 year mark before i declare them happy and good decision makers.

Bro, toxicity (violence and disrespect)anyway should be out of the window, these are obvious expectations. Why would anyone choose to keep these in their list, these are quite but obvious.

On the other point, i have seen long standing relationships also breaking, so I'm not very sure if the length really plays a part here.

That's a good rule, everyone should do it. I've told my friends before going on dates too, especially if I was feeling suspicious about the person/location.
