While you are dating a man, you need to remain in control. Besides not seeing
him exclusively right away here are some other things you should not be doing:
1. Don't reveal everything about yourself. Maintain the mystery, and reamain
slightly vague.
2. Don't always be available. Stay busy and keep active.
3. Do not return his phone calls right away. Let him anticipate your next
call.
4. Don't constantly compliment and praise him. Do so only when he really
deserves it, and use extreme moderation in the way you do it.
5. Don't reveal how impressed you are with him and never ever appear "sold".
6. Don't stop taking care of yourself, your family and friends. Don't put
yourself or them on the back burner to care for this man.
7. Don't hang on him or try to monopolize him.
8. Don't interpret what a man says or how he acts to fit your needs. Look at
things realistically for what they really are and not how you would like them to
be.
9. Don't rely on men for your self-esteem. Feeling good about yourself is
what is important.
10. Never tolerate physical or emotional abuse- there are no exceptions and
no excuses.
Overall, let him pursue you . Make it clear that you are interested, but he
needs to convince himself that you are the woman he has been searching for. Give
him that chance.
