Stuck In The Dating Treadmill trap? Here’s How to Date Successfully!

Isn’t it great when you have dates on your calendar with one or two or maybe even three different people?

The honest to goodness truth is that most of the folks you meet up with for first, second and third dates won’t pan out. One or the other of you will lose intrest and will choose to move on.

Sometimes suitors (male and female) come in batches and spurts, and then there are those yukky periods of time when there’s just no one special of interest – when you look at your calendar and there’s nothing and no one of particular interest in queue. I hated those times.

The trick is not to fall into the trap of assuming that there will always be another great one around the corner, as that’s the “dating treadmill effect” that has so many of today’s modern day daters ensnared.
