Dating Etiquette..What’s That?
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Male/Mail Call! One of our male readers posed a really interesting question to Laney and I:
“I was writing because in Atlanta, I’ve noticed that guys/girls both complain alot about the dating scene. I was curious if you think there is some type of dating etiquette that no one knows exist. Sort of like general rules that everyone should play by?”
Wow, dating etiquette? Doesn’t that sound like an oxymoron? What do you think dating etiquette is? How do you define it?
Do you think there are general dating rules that everyone should play by?
In your experience, is the dating scene in Atlanta really that bad? Are there really rude, ungrateful, ill-mannered, single people running rampant in Atlanta’s dating scene?
Truthfully, I have noticed that some guys that relocate here usually have a “good guy personality” shelf-life of about six months. Something happens and before long “No More Mr. Nice Guy” shows up.
Since I have moved here, I admit that I have a total new outlook on dating. I was even Mayor of Bitter City for a term (or two) after my own misadventures. I have to say, staying optimistic about dating can be tough sometimes!
What is it about Atlanta that changes single people’s attitude about dating? More importantly, how can we keep our wits about us despite all the dating drama?
