Dating 101

One of the more common discussions I see happening regarding dating and relationships these days, is about the lack of actual dating that seems to be happening. Last minute texts to ‘hang out’ or invitations to ‘grab a drink’ seem to be the acts in vogue.

That being said, there is a time and place for everything. Sometimes the more casual rendezvous is appropriate, but the way I see it, the amount of effort a man puts into planning a date or presenting a gift - and not necessarily the date or gift themselves - is in direct proportion to his interest and seriousness in and about the woman he is courting.
