#134 - New Relationship Anxiety: Your Questions Answered

Are you on pins and needles, riddled with anxiety about a new relationship? You're not alone. For most of our dating coaching clients, the "dating" part is not that hard. You put a profile together, attend social functions with a smile on your face, and you're going to have opportunities. Going on an actual date or three is not the biggest deal.

What IS the biggest deal, and what our dating coaching clients really struggle with, is how to manage all the anxiety, insecurity, and angst about the unknown that comes with finding someone they really like and who they've started seeing regularly. That's when all the questions come up.

Today, on the Love, Happiness and Success Podcast, I'm tackling some of your new relationship questions in hopes of putting some of that new relationship anxiety to rest. We'll discuss:

• How to manage new relationship anxiety
• The stages of a new relationship
• New relationship questions
• When to bring up topics like dating exclusively, or how you really feel
• Things to look for that indicate red flags and / or compatibility
• When you should move forward dating someone with a history of depression or other issues (and when to fold 'em).
• What to do when someone you like hasn't called or texted in a while, or gives other signals that they might not be that into you
• How to put self-love and self-worth front and center of all new dating relationships
• How to move a new relationship forward without "scaring someone off"

All that, and more, on the podcast.
