quotations about dating

Habits and attitudes established during the dating years generally carry over into marriage.

MYLES MUNROE

Waiting and Dating


Think of this date as a first step. Dating is a process and it takes time. Sure, you'd like to find instant chemistry, mutual attraction, and common interests. That's the ideal. But there are many other possible outcomes. If you approach the situation with curiosity rather than rigid expectations, you'll be less likely to be disappointed.

Most of us don't stop to think about what to look for in the dating process, and yet the choice of who to go out with and continue dating is probably one of the most important decisions we'll ever make in our lives. It is also, all too often, one of the most unconscious choices made.

Be Your Own Dating Service


Because dating is a human exercise, it can be a tightrope fraught with danger. You will be dating imperfect people, and some of them are more imperfect than others. In addition, you are not perfect either, so that complicates the picture.

HENRY CLOUD

God Will Make a Way


When a woman dislikes the man who is courting her, she parries him cleverly, like a willow in the wind.

EIJI YOSHIKAWA

Dating with no intent to marry is like going to the grocery store with no money. You either leave unhappy or take something that isn't yours.

JEFFERSON BETHKE

Love That Lasts


Trying to combine parenting with early stage dating is like walking a tightrope while wrestling a dolphin: highly slippery, inadvisable, and just plain dangerous.

JOY BROWNE

Dating for Dummies


Dating is a give and take. If you only see it as "taking," you are not getting it.

HENRY CLOUD

How to Get a Date Worth Keeping


Dating should be a part of your life, not your life a part of dating. There is more to life than finding a date. But at the same time, dating is a part of your life, and if your "traffic patterns" don't include new people, they are not serving that part of your life.

HENRY CLOUD

Dating is a place to practice how to relate to other people.

How to Get a Date Worth Keeping


There is so much hurt in this game of searching for a mate, of testing, trying. And you realize suddenly that you forgot it was a game, and turn away in tears.

SYLVIA PLATH

The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath


Dating is like using the treadmill. If you don't do it often enough, you might as well not do it at all.

BEVERLY GROSSMAN

Women Who Date Too Much


Pushing for promises, when the person you're dating is reluctant or unsure, is a recipe for disaster. A relationship has to evolve at a speed that causes the least discomfort to the person going the slowest.

SHARON ROMM

Dating After 50


Dating is a battleground filled with deception and infidelity.

ANDREW S. TREES

Decoding Love


Successful dating is not a destination, but rather it is a journey. This journey can either continue as marriage or friendship.

NOAH MITCHELL

The Nitty Gritty


Dating is an activity with a variety of purposes. For young people just beginning to participate in this activity, dating may be seen primarily or exclusively in recreational terms, devoted simply to testing one's attractiveness to the opposite sex and having fun, as the term "dating game" implies. However, eventually dating relationships tend to become more sustained and serious, and at some point dating begins to be seen more directly in terms of the goal of selecting a mate.

MARTIN KING WHYTE

Dating


Dating is about casting a wide net. It's about having faith that there is someone out there for you and knowing you can help him find you.

LAURA DOYLE

The Surrendered Single


Triple dating is like double dating, with referees.

JACK NEARY

Jerry Finnegan's Sister


The thing about dating is that it's hardly ever called a date. It's "let's hang out," "let's get together," "let's get some food," or "let's go get some beers." Those are all ways of asking someone out for a date.

SYLVIA HOWELL

How to Survive Dating


Women become attached to men through the favours they grant them, but men are cured of their love through those same favours.
