Recent studies report an increasement in the average age of marriage, which means, as our society evolves, men and women have grown more career-focused and willing to put off marriage in time. Perhaps, the reason is not embracing a "career first, start family later" mindset, but crude dating skills as well as unfortunate former relationship experience.

Romantic dramedies tackle some of the issues most people experience when trying to find their significant other. However, they don't provide an adequate outlook on the situation in question, nor give an answer to the most common question: “How do I improve my dating skills?”. Online dating and love coaching, on the other hand, have grown into a billion-dollar business and there is a reason for that. Indeed, gaining some new knowledge about dating may solve some problems.

Luckily, today there are plenty of sources including coach consulting and attending seminars and webminars, all of which are about helping people improve their dating skills.

To the point, useful way to improve your social skills is to meet more people. Expand your social circle by attending more parties and social events. Use your holidays to go somewhere with a bunch of good friends. Don't fail to miss any birthday or holiday occasion to interact with people. Throw parties to your friends even for no reason. There is a good chance to make new acquaintances, who knows what may come out in the end.

Date a lot

Even if you don't seem to like the other person, go on a date. Have a nice dinner and talk. Try to get to know the other person and see for yourself what you like and don't like about him or her. Figure out what you like to do on a date, discover what are the topics you enjoy talking about. This will provide you with valuable experience. Next time you go out with a person you really like, you won't act crazy like "O, my God, what am I going to say, where will we go, what are we be talking about?". Instead, you will act a lot more confident than before.
