I've started going on dates! My friend advised me, after we both read How to Not Die Alone, that you go on the first date just to figure out if you want to go on a second date. That mindset takes a lot of pressure off me.

That same book recommends reflecting on you and the other person after each date, so I started a dating journal. Following this template I found, each person in my dating journal has 3 sections:

1. Predictions, which will sharpen intuition and combat hindsight bias
2. Pros / cons, which will test the prediction
3. Logs, which will track events, and potentially patterns
