Psychologists say there is a scientific method that should be applied to dating to stop you from repeating the same mistakes and wanting to give up altogether.
The first step is observation, which involves gathering data and recognizing patterns.
Once you’ve made your observations, it’s time to formulate a hypothesis — an educated guess based on your data.
Reflect on your past relationships and look at what went wrong and decide what changes might lead to better results.
The experimentation phase is where the excitement lies… like go out with someone who piques your interest but isn’t traditionally your “type.”
Each new relationship is a chance to test new hypotheses, ultimately helping you better understand what works for you.
And finally experts say… Regularly analyzing your dating life, whether over brunch with the girls, beers with the boys or reading through your “dating log,” allows you to improve your approach and better understand your perfect match and yourself.
