A Man’s Guide to Re-Entering the Single’s Scene.

By: Thomas Hunter

If you are just getting out of a committed relationship you may need a few tips for re-entering the single’s scene. While the single’s scene may not have changed tremendously during your relationship, you probably have. Being in a committed relationship is much different from being involved in the single’s scene and you may need a few tips before re-entering the dating world. You’ll need to relearn previously mastered skills that may have been forgotten such as making yourself appear attractive, asking out someone and planning a date and reading the signals of other singles. Additionally, if online dating sites didn’t exist when you were courting your previous partner you may need to learn a little about this before re-entering the single’s scene. It may take some time to get back into the single’s scenes but these tips will help to ease the transition.

The key to attracting potential partners is to make yourself appear as attractive as possible. This may not be as simple as it sounds. You may look in the mirror and see yourself as attractive physically, mentally and emotionally but your opinion is not what is most important in the dating scene. What you believe is attractive may not be perceived that way by other singles so it is important to have a good understanding about what your potential partners may identify as attractive. Try using your previous relationship as a guideline for making yourself appear as attractive as possible. Think back to what it was about you that attracted your previous partner and try to emphasize that feature or characteristic. For example if your previous partner frequently complimented you on your broad shoulders and your thoughtfulness, you may want to wear clothes that accentuate your shoulders and take care to treat new acquaintances thoughtfully. Understanding what potential partners may find attractive and emphasizing these features are essential to a man who is ready to re-enter the single’s scene.

If you were in your previous relationship for a long time, it has probably been quite awhile since you have had to ask someone out. The key to success in the single’s scene is the ability to ask others out on dates and have them agree to go on a date with you. This is not a difficult skill but it is one that a man may need to brush up on if he has been out of the single’s scene for awhile. If you want to have a great deal of success in asking people out, be confident without appearing arrogant. This will make you seem like you are sure of yourself but not self-centered and will make you more desirable. Also, when asking someone out, offer specific suggestions for what you would like to do on the date. Just asking someone if they would be interested in getting together sometime is not nearly as effective as asking if they would be interested in joining you for dinner and dancing on a certain date. One of the most important aspects of the single’s scene is the ability to ask people out successfully and many men may need a few tips on this as they prepare to re-enter the single’s scene.

In the single’s scene, it is also very important to be able to read the signals that others are giving off. This skill will help determine if others are interested in you but this ability may have become rusty while you were in a committed relationship because you became used to your partner and the subtle ways they communicated with you without using words. In the single’s scene however, singles are constantly giving off subtle signals that let you know whether or not you should approach them. Understanding body language that indicates that the other person is not interested will help you avoid wasting your time on someone who isn’t interested in you. A person who crosses their arms or turns away from you and averts eye contact is likely not interested in pursing a relationship with you. Conversely, someone who smiles at you from afar, makes eye contact and angles their body towards you is probably interested in getting to know you better and may be open to going on a first date with you.

Online dating and web sites that host personals ads are becoming increasingly popular. If these weren’t available when you were courting your previous partner or you are unaware of how these sites work, you may want to explore the Internet as an opportunity to meet new potential partners. Understanding how online dating sites work will help you to navigate your way around this cyber single’s scene. While you may meet the love of your live online, it is important to exercise restraint in dating someone you meet online as it is very easy to deceive others online.

Re-entering the dating scene after a long relationship can be tricky but hopefully these tips will help to guide you through the single’s scene. It’s important to remember that the dating scene probably hasn’t changed much since you were involved in it. Most likely, you have changed more than the dating scene so it just may take a little time before you remember how to successfully navigate the single’s scene. Also, keep in mind that being yourself and having fun is the most effective way to meet people.
