1. Slow down. Go slow. We are always in such a hurry to control the outcome when it comes to the object of our desires, whether it be sex, going steady, saying “I love you,” moving in together, marriage, babies, or whatever it is, we are so eager to get to the next step that we often lose sight of ourselves in the process. We lose touch with our friends, we lose touch with our work, family, interests and hobbies. So, slow it down. Let things unravel in their own time. If a relationship takes one year or five years to materialize, so be it. What is the rush? (*Note: If you are in a rush for something such as a biological clock or other arbitrary societal measure, then you are more likely to run into some of the problems I mentioned earlier).
