Dating can often be stressful, especially after the festive period when we’re all trying to get back into our routines, but it really doesn’t have to be.

If dating hasn’t worked so well for you in the past then make 2013 the year for you. Try dating someone outside of your normal type or even just a different form of dating.

Here are some great tips from www.welovedates.com to find you a new love in 2013.

Try Online Dating

Online dating is a great way to find a date, mostly because you’re able to get to know someone before having that all important first date.

Dating sites allow you to be matched with people on compatibility and values, as well as allowing you to browse at your leisure so there really is a site for everyone.

Do Something Different

Having the same date week in, week out will eventually leave you bored of trying to find the right person for you, so why not try something different?

WeLoveDates say, “The best way to get new results in your dating life is to try new things. If you usually hang out at the same old bars and restaurants weekend after weekend, seek out new places to spend your time. New places equal new people and more chances to make a love connection!”

Let Your Friends Play Matchmaker

It can often be a daunting prospect, letting your friends choose your date, but you have to remember that they know what you like and more importantly, what you don’t like so they’re more likely to choose very wisely.

WeLoveDates say, “Instead of protesting when your best friend suggests setting you up on a blind date with her co-worker, play along and give it a shot! You never know what could happen.”

Use Social Media

We all use it every day so why not implement it into your love life? You can meet practically anyone via social media so it’s a great place to start.

WeLoveDates say, “Blogs, Twitter, Facebook and Instagram are all great ways to find the love of your life. It's easy to search for people who share your interests and live close to you. Start liking their photos or leaving flirty comments and you could be well on your way to an off-line love affair.”
