In the days of Jane Austen a man would show his preference to a lady by first introducing himself to her family, and try slowly but surely to win her heart by earning the praise of her family. It was a long and sometimes arduous process trying to impress the said lady, and I am sure many gentlemen would have wished it were a tad bit easier to win over the lady. This long process was considered the modern equivalent of dating so many decades ago. As civilizations evolved with time, so did the outlook to dating, and then it became common for a man to get to know the girl initially and then meet her family. That does seem a logical way to go, as in the long run it is both of them who have to spend all the time together. The first date is generally when both would go out for a meal (most often dinner) and talk about each other’s lives and try to see if it they could handle meeting up again. And so the more recent version of dating came to be.
Dating is a fascinating process. As this is the time both person’s involved are getting to know the other, both generally show only the ‘nice’ side of themselves. They do not want to show the less-than-perfect side of things and so are always trying to impress the other party and make sure that person realizes how lucky they are to have them in their lives. This is understandable as dating is somewhat like a ‘mating ritual’ in some ways…we are trying to find a partner who we can depend on and live with for as long as we may live right?. Dating is also when confusion reigns as one of the more prevalent emotions, along with a certain degree of happiness, self-importance (here is someone who thinks what you say is significant) and maybe, for the lucky ones, the initial stages of love.
Dating is considered a good way of getting to know another person, as it is in this time that you learn a lot about how compatible you are with the other person. Dating is also an enjoyable time for most as there is a lot of mutual attraction, flirting and both generally enjoy the other person’s company. After a few dates, it is much easier to decide on how long-term the relationship can get, and then let yourself fall in love!.
