Recruit & Retain
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
On Monday’s post, I facetiously said that if relationships came with a manual, we probably wouldn’t read it anyway. Perhaps that is true - but let’s say wanted to draft a manual about building and maintaining relationships. I think it could be divided into the basics : recruiting the right person and retaining them. Easier said then done, I know!
Which do you think is harder: finding a mate (recruitment) or keeping a mate (retention)? If we aren’t getting the results we want, it seems as if we have a hard time switching things up. What is the best way to improve the way you recruit potential dates?
If you are in a new relationship, what made you take it to the next level? Did you have a talk or did it evolve more organically through consistency?
Why do we leave a relationship that we worked so hard to have? Do you think it is challenging for women to love men the way they want to be loved? Are we too focused on our mates being flawless?
Do you think that relationships today focus too much on what the other person brings to the table instead of what we each bring to a relationship?
