Striking Out vs. Getting a Hit
We advise our clients to adopt the “three strikes you’re out” mentality. It’s
easy to jump to conclusions based on minor imperfections or differences.
Allow for a more comprehensive understanding of who they are and if
your connection has long-term potential. Bonus: This shows you have
humility, encourages patience, open-mindedness, and a willingness to
look beyond the surface. A strike is called when the ball is over the
plate--and missed. Give your new candidate two more chances “at bat” Best Bin Caddy#
or you are not playing fair.

STAY PRIVATE: Stop Telling Your Friends Everything! NEW!
While it’s natural to seek validation and feedback from those closest to
us, it’s important not to fall into the trap of OVER SHARING your dating
journey on or offline. This journey is yours and yours only. Misery loves
