When
Do You Know If He's Right?
by
Amy Waterman, Relationship Expert
 How
many dates does it take to make a decision about whether or not you want
to pursue a relationship?
I've always been curious about this aspect of dating, because very few
women have comparable experiences. With some dates, the knowledge is
immediate and instinctual. With other dates, months may pass before the
endearing nature of his laugh, his smile, his character becomes apparent.
I know that I am a slow warmer. I am wary when I meet a man for the first
time. I am dubious of his intentions. I read innuendo where none was
intended. It takes me time to let down my guard.
It's not because I'm naturally a suspicious person. It's because, in the
realm of relationships, I've been burned enough by bad apples.
I'm representative of most women my age. By one's thirties, one has
experienced enough bad relationships to associate the dualities of pain
and pleasure with a man. One is never sure how much to trust.
But this isn't natural.
Twenty years ago, I loved all boys. I played with them innocently and
full-heartedly. Boys were my playmates, my cohorts in crime, and my
teammates for games. I could think no evil of boys. Their strange
preferences for dirt, body odor, cars, and constrictive underpants were
simply idiosyncrasies of fascinating playmates.
As I grew older, I realized that boys could no longer be trusted to play
innocently with me. My first two male friends in college were cool--a jazz
musician and an Apple Mac gamer--until I realized they "liked"
me. I quickly dissolved the friendships. I wanted the innocent
companionship and friendship of my childhood male schoolmates. I didn't
realize that maturing would erase that possibility completely.
When do we women
lose our innocence with men?
And can we ever regain it?
In my line of work, one great danger is to take relationships and
attraction too seriously. Many women feel that the potential of the man
they are seeing is a matter of life or death. Instead of having fun
playing with him (like a child with a favorite playmate), they evaluate
his potential as a father. They situate any future relationship squarely
in the realm of adulthood. The rest of their lives is at stake.
My flatmate tells me that the definition of compatibility as a couple is
when his or her issues are compatible with your issues.
That's a pretty adult view of the situation.
I have a different view. I believe that you know a man is compatible with
you if he likes to play the same "games" you like to play. Maybe
you like to tease in a certain way; maybe there's a certain game in bed
that you like to play. Maybe you like to go out; maybe you like to
mountain bike. If he likes to enjoy himself and have fun and laugh in the
same ways as you, you've found a potential soul mate.
We all knew back in childhood that there were some children that we could
play with for ages, and there were others who liked games that didn't
interest us. It's the same with men and women.
Yet in our attempt to find a suitable man, we often forget to look for one
that we have fun with. One that makes the kinds of jokes we find funny
(and laughs at our jokes). One that is up for any crazy scheme we propose.
One that will make our life happy and light-hearted, not just important
and successful.
Life is serious and
dry enough. We don't need relationships
to replicate those patterns.
Relationships should be a haven from life's dry seriousness. You should be
able to feel like a child with your partner, unembarrassed at the silliest
of games. Together, you will be responsible for forming a life, raising
children, making a home ... but all this will only be enjoyable if you can
laugh together.
I have been out on dates with many successful, intense, highly attractive
men. I admire them, appreciate them, and learn much from conversations
with them. These are the men who will shape the world. No woman can fail
to respond to their power.
But as for myself ... in my little, humble world ... I envision my ideal
future as one in which there is always laughter, in which I can return to
childhood with my spouse and play those games that I didn't get to play
enough before I grew "old." I want us to be able to chase one
another around the room, have pillow fights, and wrestle. I want us to
tease one another, share silly jokes, and dissolve the seriousness of a
working day with the magical spell of humor.
So, I suppose, the answer to my question is that it takes exactly the
number of dates you need to decide whether you've found a companion you
can play with. Some kids find a game they can play with each other right
off the bat. Other kids end up trying lopsided games that one but not the
other likes until they either find a game they like in common or give up.
Trust your child-heart's instinct. Ask yourself ... if you were a kid,
would you play with this guy? Or would he be one of those kids who tries
to control the game, or change the rules, or cheat?
A partner who makes life more fun is a treasure indeed.
All the best in life and love,
Amy Waterman
