Vanilla Dating: Finding Love And Connection In The Everyday
>
By CAROLYN OSORIO
Vanilla dating is a low-key and relaxed way to date someone without all of the added pressure and stress of constant excitement. It embraces a slower and more everyday journey.
This can be important if you're on a budget or are looking for ways to save money. It can also appeal to those wanting to avoid extravagance in favor of achieving intimacy sooner.
In other words, vanilla dating can also help you achieve a deeper connection with a new partner by removing the distraction of external activities.
Tina Wilson, founder of the dating app Wingman, explains, "The most fulfilling and contented relationships can be found in everyday experiences."
Wilson added that dating "doesn't always have to be filled with grand gestures or extravagant experiences." This could mean staying in and cooking together or going for a walk.
By embracing a slower and more domestic approach to your relationship, you can allow yourself to relax without the constant need for planned excitement and busy adventures.
