When you know you fancy a person...and you know you should restrain yourself!!
Or do you not?

Being connected and engaged with many different people. That means high quality observation and communication. I’m not talking about TV where for you know what, the stars use duct tape.

Thinking from different perspectives

Conceptualizing a map of the big picture

Identifying the objective

Thinking 5 steps ahead

Forming ideas

Imagining how they would play out

Doing more research

Observing

Practicing communication skills in a space where no important decisions are actually executed.

Keeping moving
Staying inspired
Staying whole

Just play out what you know will REALLY happen in your mind -not all that good stuff which might happen before the inevitable wrecking of lives and regret that you hurt someone you really love.
Remember the reason you knew you had to restrain yourself in the first place.
If you love someone, you want the best for them. Sometimes that means not being with them.

That can include just not being ready to give what a relationship requires.

Every now and again, however, people restrain themselves for the wrong reasons -or they are just being too cautious and "awfulizing" something that could be wonderful.

Good answer. For me, if I am infatuated, I have to remind myself to slow down, because time reveals a person's real character. I have not had that many relationships and I still think I am naive.

Hesitate and maybe miss the only opportunity to communicate; or jump in head first and be shot down in flames. Either way sucks.

Regular rejection from the girl I'm in love with made me stop after decades.

I drew pictures of my ideal woman, and when I saw her in real life I cased her out (she worked in a shop) and the next time I asked her to coffee with me.
She was most unkind. It took me a year to ask another one.

The pain restrains me.

If it looks like I might stand a chance, and the pleasure may exceed the pain, I'll try again.

They should bring courtship back.

It may seem like a slow process, but so many waste their time by jumping into relationships and bed before they know anything about the other. Then it surprisingly doesn't work out and they do it again and again. They often invest emotionally and even financially -or derail their own goals -before even knowing if they are really compatible. Meanwhile they overlook someone who is interested and good for them -but patient -or that someone becomes disinterested.

Being patient is actually a faster way to find the RIGHT person.
