It must be tempting to reinvent yourself when you are hoping to meet someone new. Maybe you have decided what the ‘other’ person is looking for and decided to invent a persona to fit the bill. Are you going to become sophisticated or perhaps carry an air of mystery in order to attract that perfect someone?

Now imagine trying to keep the pretence up for week after week! It’s not going to happen is it? And would you like a lifetime of living in a sham personality, waiting to be found out. They are not going to be too impressed and nor would you be, I imagine.

I am not suggesting that you don’t try to learn from past or improve yourself. We should all be trying to do that all the time including in our attitude to love and being loved. As we get older it just gets more and more difficult to change our basic personality profile. It won’t work and you will make an idiot of yourself trying to do it.

So, just be yourself when dating. You will do as well to get the real you into the open straight away and if that’s not what the other person is looking for then at least you won’t get in too deep and waste both of your time.

We all have flaws and we are all a little bit mad and so why not live with it and embrace the other person’s foibles as well.
