{pursuit of love} How About We: Spring Fun

Ah, Spring. The perfect time to fall in love, no? I’ve had my fair share of seasonal romances, but even when part of a long-term relationship, I don’t think that “dating” (each other, mind you) should cease. I know it’s difficult, what with that hibernating shape you’ve seemingly taken on, but it’s truly important to maintain some level of fun with your significant other to ward off any potential boredom. And oh my, do I get bored easily.

So, how do you get back in to the game (besides initially removing yourself from that couch, of course)? Fun activities and making plans, of course. If you’re already involved in our own life, you most definitely meet new people — and probably potential suitors. Keep your eyes (and mind… and heart) open, your interests varied and don’t be afraid to be adventurous or creative. These are ALL attractive qualities. Don’t let anyone tell you differently.

You do know that AB & I met during a 100+-person white water rafting/camping trip, right? We had mutual friends, even, but NEVER met before that trip.

HowAboutWe.com is celebrating its first year helping you and like-minded daters connect over interesting and unique adventures. They also offers some dating advice to successfully land (or plan) a date this spring:

• First and foremost, BE DIRECT: When suggesting a certain restaurant or planning a specific activity, you are 40% more successful than when saying, “I don’t know; what do you want to do?” (oh my, I remember those boring days).
• Plan ahead: Wednesday is the best day to ask someone out on a date. Sunday is the worst. True story. Seriously, I’m already dreading Monday and likely nursing a hangover (still); the last thing I want to think about on my showerless Sundays is ANOTHER thing to add to my calendar for the week. By Wednesday, I’ve nearly forgotten what trouble I got into the weekend prior and might be so inclined to take you up on your offer.
• Make it a Double: Two-part dates have the biggest chance for success. Approximately 60% of the most responded to dates on HowAboutWe.com involve a short, active first act, followed by a more intimate second location.

Because I am a sucker for connecting GOOD (and interesting) people with one another, HowAboutWe is offering all of my readers a special 33% OFF their service! Use the promo code SpringFun to receive the discount. And Have FUN!
