Dating is a testing ground for relationship compatibility.” ~ Dr. M Allen
Dating relationships are a collection of powerful proving grounds for determining a couple’s compatibility. Dating provides opportunities to demonstrate one’s values, beliefs, competence, expectations, insecurities, and flaws. When these areas are explored it is an opportunity for personal growth and development that can support the transition to a committed relationship.
Cultural rules and norms are generally insufficient for producing effective or long-term solutions in a successful relationship. We have observed that it is a combination of learning and personal development that represents the strongest chances of developing authentic, lasting, and deeply connected relationships.
As part of our process we explore an individual’s:
1) Dating priorities
2) Deal breakers
3) Compatible personality types
4) Past wounds and pathways to healing
5) Inherited familial behavior patterns
6) Relationship expectations
Questions: Are you dating with the intention of marriage?
Are you recreationally dating or just playing the field with no commitments?
Are you exclusively dating to get married or find partnership?
Are you dating a special person with the mutual intention of marriage or committing to a partnership?
Are you not dating currently and want to learn how and where to look?
Are you confused about Internet dating?
Are you dating without a relationship plan?
If you need clarity and direction, perhaps its time to get some education and learn what you don’t know and what you need to know to have a consciously loving relationship. Love is not enough to create and maintain a successful relationship.
