Slow Burn In Dating- What It Really Means
I am a “no rules” love coach.
I’m not going to tell you to wait 3 days, 3 weeks or 3 months for any specific milestones in your new relationship.
What I will insist on, however, is the slow burn.
What does that mean exactly?
It means savouring your new budding relationship.
Taking time to get to know each other without trying to jump to the finish line…like, “are we there yet?”.
Let the emotional connection unfold.
And the physical one to build alongside it (away with hookup culture and starting a relationship off with sex).
Allow for some space between talking to him, seeing him - and most importantly, thinking about him.
Hold up, wait a minute. I can already hear your objections.
Yes, go ahead…daydream and let all those yummy feelings wash over you.
AND THEN…
Redirect your thoughts to your amazing life.
You had a full life before he came into it, did you not?
Mental space is mother f*****g key.
And yet, it’s hard to do.
The biggest mistake I see women make is not having sex too soon or saying too much.
It’s their overthinking and analyzing that gets in the way.
You went from being easy-breezy, fun-loving and brilliant - to memorizing the dates he said specific things and trying to fit all the puzzle pieces together.
Don’t get caught in this trap, girl.
Helping women put aside those thoughts, come back into their bodies and connect with their innate worth is one of my zones of genius.
If overthinking is a trap you find yourself caught in, often - you will definitely want to apply to School of Love (doors close on March 22nd).
Let your relationships be like a delicious meal or amazing book, savour it and let it burn slow.
This way, it only gets better.
With love,
Diana
