      INTRODUCTION

      ‘A man with outward courage dares to die;

      a man with inner courage dares to live.’

      LAO TZU

      SWIPING RIGHT ON OTHERS

      Tinder.

      It sounded like an online supermarket for hook-ups. With my mind uncontaminated by experience but informed by salacious media, I fantasised about wandering down virtual aisles of women. Or did I sit on the shelf and they were doing the browsing?

      I never expected to visit the Tinderverse. I’d been in a meaningful long-term relationship for many years. We were happily committed to one another. I thought. Then one evening, with no warning at all, my partner told me she’d been seeing an old flame – for some time. Not only seeing him, of course. After test driving, she had decided to trade me in. I was incredulous, then devastated. The person I’d trusted most in life was untrustworthy.

      Could anyone be trusted? Could I be certain of anything?¹

      I grieved, processed, and eventually recovered the equilibrium I’d lost. Ultimately I was ready to consider another relationship. Online dating had now become mainstream, a routine approach to meeting potential partners for people of all ages. After a little research, I discovered my initial assessment of Tinder had been largely fantasy. Casual sex appeared to be a minority interest, Tinderland being mostly populated by people looking for something more enduring. Tinder also had considerable competition, from similar apps such as Bumble and OkCupid. Whatever you are looking for, there’s an app for that.

      As you may already know, dating apps tend to work along similar lines. You usually create a profile with a brief description of yourself, one or more photos, your age, location and preferred age range for a date. Then you press the search button. The process is less like wandering down supermarket aisles and more like sitting beside a sushi train. Possible choices arrive one at a time. Like what you see? Swipe right, as many times as you like. Not interested? Swipe left. If both parties are interested, it’s a match! You can message one another and take it from there.

      Would getting a great date really be as easy as ordering a customised pizza online? I decided to find out.

      No. It would not.

      I could get dates, sure, but mostly with people who weren’t right for me. At all. I embarked on a steep learning curve.

      Everything changed as I got better at doing three things. Then I started meeting more and more wonderful, funny, smart, attractive and increasingly appealing women. I’m not saying this will help anyone else, but here are the three steps I took that made all the
