Maybe you’re a little ghosty when it comes to correspondence. You don’t like phone calls. You take all day to text back. You don’t reach out often. You do accept dates with him, but as a way of taking things slowly, you keep the correspondence light in between—but it’s so light that it makes him feel like you’d be perfectly fine with him just disappearing.

As women, have we forgotten how an actual date is supposed to go? I did for a period of time, and then a lightbulb went off. Figure out your personal rules of dating and be sure to stick with them.

The endurance of an Olympic marathon runner has nothing on these girls who are willing to wait it out in pursuit of a particular man's affection.
