I read a very interesting thing about dating and relationshipsin the book " How to put more "ING" in your life. It basically states that with our relationships some of us tend to put our other halves on a pedestal and expect more from them than they can give, that we have to let go of that. In new relationships we should treat the new men and women in our lives like old friends, drop the pretenses and really show who we are. That way the pressure is of from day one and you are not going to feel pressured later to be anything than what you are.

It's great book that looks like fluff, but really has some good points and is easy to follow, I'll post the authors name up later ( book's upstairs under my pillow ;~)
