Beginning the Dance Alone
Many people count on meeting someone through friends and relatives, but it can be difficult when they have been on a large number of blind dates that all turned out badly. They could see their life into the future as one that will be lonely, or they could strike out on their own. It will take courage to meet others without their friends or family with them, but beginning the dance alone might be their ticket to a lifetime of happiness with the right person. There will be no one for them to lean on when they get stuck, so they will have to gear up their own resources to get that date.
Taking classes with a friend is often the way singles get out of their normal routine to meet someone. It can be fun to attend a class that has no grades or minimums to pass, and two friends can have a good time doing it. What they might not see is that they are driving away potential dates they could meet because they are busy chatting with each other. Taking a class without a friend might be the best way to meet someone completely new, so signing up solo is a consideration.
Talking to unknown people is not necessary if a friend or relatives joins the class with someone else, but being forced to talk to others could be a good first step. Chatting with others about what they are learning is a common subject, so there are ways to get the dance going without too much of a hassle. A single person could find they have plenty to say when they are not being shy and letting a loved one do their talking.
Going alone to any event or class could be a difficult step, but it might be the best one to take. Learning to get out there alone and take a chance could lead a person to the relationship they have been seeking.
