If you're looking for a relationship, online dating apps can be frustrating. Endless first dates that seem to lead nowhere. But maybe its not your fault. Maybe its even a good thing? The path the dating success is never a straight line. Even if it was, you'd never learn anything about yourself along the way. Stop blaming yourself. You just need a new dating approach. Its simple, and here it is:

1. Mix it up:  doing the same things over & over again and expecting a different result is a recipe for dating frustration. Stop swiping & put your phone down; get yourself out there and try something new: attend a fun event with a friend, or a summer music festival, or a hit a local hotspot in a new part of town. You've nothing to lose but your single life.
2. Be the hunter, and  you'll soon be hunted:  waiting around for Mr or Ms Right to come up and say hi is not likely to work. When you're out socially - or even on a coffee break outside - smile, be friendly and strike up conversations with people around you (singles, couples, young & old alike). Its called conversational momentum and it'll make you and those around you feel a whole lot better.
3. Be the person you want to meet:  if you're looking for someone active, get in shape. If you're looking for someone outdoorsy, join a hiking club. If you're looking for someone kind & friendly, be kind & friendly to others. Its not rocket science - heck, its not even science - its common sense, and it works.
4. Be the most positive person in the room:  when you are on a date, avoid negative topics at all costs. Be fun, be happy, tell some funny or interesting stories - focus on making your date have the time of their lives. It may not lead you to a relationship right away, buts its a great start.
5. Hire a professional:  you wouldn't buy a house on your own would you? So who says dating has to be a 'Do-it-yourself' project. Professional matchmaking services (like Executive Search Dating) are booming these days for a reason - they work! Contact us today to learn more.
