While you’re being honest about what you’re doing, it doesn’t make anyone feel any better knowing that they aren’t the only ones in your lives. Calling them the wrong name is a huge deal, and talking about things that you actually experienced with someone else can only serve to remind them that you’re not waiting around for love to find you too. They feel left out and want to leave the situation. Avoid that by keeping everything very organized. Few ways to better organize your life. Sure, you can’t help it if you already told them the same story three times because you thought that they weren’t the date you talked to last or if you forget that they actually are the one that hates strawberries. However, you can keep a detailed list of your schedule and where they fit on it. That way you don’t text one person and tell them that you’ll be late when in a matter of fact you didn’t plan on seeing them at all.

Give Them Your All
