THE NEW RULES
OF DIGITAL
DATING
Here are five pearls of wisdom for meeting IRL.
A lack of first-date chemistry isn’t always bad news. Treat dating apps as ‘Introduction tools’,
to expand real-life social networks.
CONNECTIONS ARE KEY
When you feel a connection and see something you want, take steps towards it. Don’t sit back.
MAKE THE FIRST MOVE
You only get curated pieces of information about another person, so you have the tendency to fill in the blanks with positive attributes. Don’t do that.
DON’T FILL IN THE BLANKS
Make sure you meet in a public place, and get their full name so you can have a scroll of their social media profiles.
ALWAYS PUT SAFETY FIRST
Be patient. Love takes time to blossom.

EXPECTATIONS
