Connecting with other people is getting much easier day by day, mostly because you’re feeling more comfortable in your own skin. Accepting yourself for who you are and for what you bring to any relationship, no matter how brief, is the best new trend, and you wear it well. Meeting new people will be easy for you right now because you’re ready to reach out and share a little bit of yourself. The fear of rejection has faded into obscurity.

How someone’s perceiving you may not match up with who you truly are. Be clear about your values and outlook, and remember that actions speak louder than words. Show your real self instead of talking about it.

You’re so used to being the clear-eyed thinker in this relationship that you forget what it’s like to nurture a few harmless illusions. Do something radical. Let yourself go. Drift. Daydream. It’s good for the soul.

You don’t need an exotic or unusual dinner spot, or any fancy food at all for that matter. If you and another are truly compatible, even a dive will do. Find someone to enjoy life on the cheap with.
