Started going out on dates this past month and I'll tell you, it's refreshing to go out with women who actually want to spend time with you to include intimacy.

Gotta have thick skin because this new world of dating is full of women who will ghost you, not even show up, or simply looking for validation.

First date should be coffee or drinks. Do not spend money on these women early. If there's no connection, all you paid for was some coffee and on to next.

I'd set these dates up after work and try not to stay for more than 30 mins. Most of the time these women work as well so the timing works.

Gentlemen, if she cancels or doesn't communicate, drop her. Don't waste your time.

They like to play the game of "so busy at work today" or "I dont check this app often" but it's 100% bullshit. They're glued to their phone. Do not waste your energy with these types.

Move the conversation to text and do a FaceTime. They will put up old photos, use filters, make themselves look skinny with weird angles. FaceTime them to make sure they're real and not using ten year old photos.

Move to a FaceTime call asap to determine if you want to move forward. Do not waste weeks texting and find out she's an orca with a giant mole on her face.

I was pretty busted up about my situation. I'm not getting into anything serious and am currently seeing a few women.

Get out there. It's fun.
