Valentine’s Day is fast approaching and if you’re still finding yourself with no plans, and it’s not looking likely you’re going to be cast for a reality telly dating show, then we have some tips that will help you find a date so you’re not Netflix and chilling on your own. With one in five relationships now starting online, you’ll be spoilt for choice when you see which worldie turns your head at Coupling Up.
1. Keep it real:
At Coupling Up, we’re all about the fun, so it’s important to keep your profile real and true to who you are. If binge-watching Too Hot to Handle and the latest season of Love Island has taught us anything, it’s that relationships can be complicated. It’s important to be honest and transparent so you can get that real first date spark. If the banter doesn’t flow, or you feel like you are trying too hard to make a conversation happen, that’s okay. There’s plenty of other singles you can chat to and trust us, you’ll be finding someone to crack on with in no time.
2. Keep an open mind:
Sometimes the fear of getting the ‘ick’ happens way too early. Get chatting and give them a chance to really show you their personality quirks. You never know, they might turn out to be an absolute keeper once you’ve arranged that first date.
3. Be spontaneous
Sometimes spontaneous, last-minute plans are the best. There’s no time for overthinking and it can make things seem more exciting. You open up the possibilities of experiences that otherwise might not have happened. If someone asks you out and you're free and you feel you know them well, just go for it.
4. Relax, it’s just another day:
The best dating tip for Valentine’s Day is to remember that it is just another day. Don’t put too much pressure on yourself. It’s important to put yourself out there but overthinking can make things more complicated then they need to be. Simply see who you vibe with and who turns your head. You never know who you might get to chat to at Coupling Up. Don’t forget to save 33% on all memberships until the 28th of February by clicking here!
