How do you deal with dating and the ‘spark’

Soooo I have been using the typical dating sites for a few months and had met a couple of guys, nice enough but didn’t meet for second dates…..now I met a guy last week and WOW the spark, connection or whatever you want to call it is insane! We have met twice now and have a third meet planned this week. How do you stop yourself getting carried away or do you just think sod it and if it feels right just go for it 🙈 never had this sort of connection with someone before and we are both smitten already- I feel like a teenager!

Enjoy it while you can/it lasts. Don’t get too emotionally invested too quickly. But we only live once and the spark isn’t that common. So have a great 3rd date 😄😄. That’s usually when things get “interesting” so I’m a little jealous for the delicious anticipation. 😍😍

Easy, you meet in public then go your separate ways at the end of the night. Also helps if you both have DC's at home ( me 100%,him 50%). There was covid isolation (him), family commitments over Xmas and NY (both), then more covid isolation ( me this time). Well frustrating, but by the time we got it together - just wow! I actually think waiting was the best thing ever, great to take the time to get to know each other despite the overwhelming chemistry, I highly recommend holding out if you can, the chemistry will still be there - more so in fact.

Btw, had fab chemistry before and gone with the flow, only to find out further on that they were not who I thought they were - well disappointing that is. So taking your time is wise, regardless is chemistry ( sometimes it can blind you, it's not everything).

@Opentooffers I agree! I have taken the ‘spark’ as being a done deal and unfortunately ignored the massive beaming red flags waving in my face! I would completely take your time!
