Dating Dementia

Keeping Your Brain in the Dating Game

Meeting new people and searching for someone special to spend your life with can be a fun and fulfilling time. However, for some, dating has lead to disappointment, hurt, and disillusionment. For others who have been through the breakup of a committed relationship, the fear of choosing wrong again interferes with the desire to try again.

If you are already dating you may just be interested in identifying potential problems before moving into a marriage. If you fall into one of these categories, this class may help you be more successful in establishing a healthier relationship the next time around by keeping your brain in the dating game.
