In the world of modern dating, finding a lasting connection can often feel like navigating through a maze. However, certain qualities and behaviors can make a significant impact in the early stages of a relationship.

I want to share my personal experience — how I carried myself and treated my husband in the early days of our dating to communicate my values, interests, and intention as he made the first moves and consistently made an effort to pursue a relationship with me.

1. Embracing Singleness as a Strength

In my journey, I had undergone a process of healing and self-discovery. Recognising the value of being single, I knew that any relationship I entered needed to bring additional enrichment to my life.

This mindset was crucial because it meant that I wasn’t seeking a partner out of neediness or desperation. Instead, I was looking for a relationship that would complement my already content and fulfilled life.

My husband saw this self-sufficiency and was drawn to my independence and sense of completeness.
