Trust your gut

It should go without saying that most people should trust their gut when it comes to dating whether you meet the person online, offline or with friends. Unfortunately, for many people, they’re willing to ask their friends, family, stranger on a subway or the Twitterverse before they go with their own feelings.

Remember, before you ask us what we think, none of us were on the date with you to see the chemistry, the way she played with her hair, or unfortunately, the way he was checking out the waitress’s ass. You were there, and you had a visceral reaction good, bad or indifferent, but you had an opinion of how the evening went.

It’s one thing when you truly have no idea or don’t have an opinion. But I don’t want to convince you that you were reading something wrong, or that there was something there that there wasn’t. Trust yourself. You’re the one who has to go out on the second or third date.

Just have faith in yourself, if you don’t, it’s time to take a break from the dating market.
