Dating-Part 1 “Going too Fast”
Sevin Philips, MFT offers advice on dating-
Going fast creates ‘False Intimacy’ which leads to getting into the wrong relationships.
Key behaviors leading to false intimacy:
• Sex too soon
• Spending the night
• Spending too much time
• Trust and time–over-disclosing
Key practices to slowing down:
• No sex for 10-12 dates
• Meeting for coffee instead of extended evening dates
• Little to no alcohol consumption
• Limiting contact (emails, phone, text or dates)
