Starting a new relationship with someone can be scary because you don’t know the person you’re dating. You’re jumping in this based on pure faith – it’s like investing a thousand dollars based on a stock you don’t know about. It’s important to know that as tempting as it may be, you don’t have to spend every waking moment with your new love. Here are four things you should do when starting a new relationship.

1. You may be headed for trouble if you’ve told your friend that he is “The One”. Never let yourself think this way. You need to relax and keep your expectations realistic.

2. Hold the sex – till you’ve had several dates at least. This way you’ll get to figure out how emotionally compatible you are before you let your sex and hormones take over.

3. You should not let your friends and family meet the person you’re dating until you’ve dated for at least a month. If you’ve been in the relationship for a few weeks but have noticed some areas of concern, extend it an extra month to know the person better so you can figure out if he’s right for you.

4. Self talk yourself to keep and eye on the bigger picture. Tell yourself things like “Focus on whether you like him, and not whether he likes you” or “If it’s meant to be, she’ll call; if not, I’ll have more energy to look for someone else.”
