Dating logistics.....?

I am unqualified to answer, having been married for over 20 years. But am just commenting to let you know that the word "logistics" does not fit here. "Dating strategies" makes sense, but not logistics....which has to do with the planning of transportation of goods, esp. military munitions, cargo, equipment, etc. See: http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/logistic...

Since your question indicates your dating objective is to find a permanent relationship with someone you find acceptable for a (hopefully) permanent union, I recommend you proceed with caution.

In other words, move slowly.

If you find that "spark" that appears to Love at First Sight, that is great, but you might scare someone off if you come on too strong. Then again, don't drag it out.

The correct pacing will become evident if you watch the signals you receive. It is best to let him know you are searching for an enduring relationship. If that is acceptable to him, asking the tougher questions won't be a shock.

Then if you scare him off, he wasn't ready and was not being truthful when he agreed to move forward toward your desired outcome.

That does not assume he will want all the same things you want in life, so that is another bump in the road you may encounter.

I.Q. test your self, then work on your intuition. Don't take first dates too seriously. Then demand they test their self.
