Chances are it\u2019s a trusted friend, family member, or therapist. Or maybe, it\u2019s the internet. The world wide web has become something of an expert on dating advice in the last few years; a simple search for the term \u201cdating advice\u201d yields over 665 million results in just .58 seconds. So, with that many suggestions, what should you click on first? We rounded up some of the best dating advice articles of 2017 to get you started.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u201c8 Ways to Have a Better Relationship in 2018\u201d via <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2017\/12\/03\/smarter-living\/8-ways-to-have-a-better-relationship-in-2018.html\"><strong><em>The New York Times<\/em><\/strong><\/a><br>\nWhat makes this dating advice article so great is that it\u2019s filled with suggestions that are actually doable. And they\u2019re the type of suggestions that you know you need to hear and that you know you should take. But hey, sometimes it takes an article reminding you to put away your phone or get more sleep to remember why you should do it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u201cWhy I Bring All My Baggage on My First Dates\u201d via <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thecut.com\/2017\/11\/why-i-bring-all-my-baggage-on-my-first-dates.html\"><strong><em>The Cut<\/em><\/strong><\/a><br>\nThis article so perfectly puts to words that feeling of not knowing how much of yourself to share at first. Should you slowly reveal details about yourself (like being divorced and\/or having kids) over time based on how serious you are about someone? Or should you just lay it all on the line from the get-go? The author learned that full transparency from the beginning worked best for her, and reading how her dates and matches reacted is truly fascinating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u201cI Eloped at 25, Divorced at 26, and Dated My Way Across Europe All Summer\u201d via <\/strong><strong><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.marieclaire.com\/sex-love\/a13084814\/dating-through-europe-essay\/\">Marie Claire<\/a><br>\n<\/em><\/strong>If the headline of this one doesn\u2019t immediately pull you in, we don\u2019t know what will. It\u2019s a whirlwind personal essay about getting married, getting divorced, and using dating apps abroad that reads like a romantic comedy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u201c11 Practical Ways To Date In 2017\u201d via <\/strong><strong><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.huffingtonpost.ca\/2017\/01\/25\/dating-in-2017_n_14339350.html\">HuffPost Canada<\/a><br>\n<\/em><\/strong>We were immediately struck by one word in particular in this headline: \u201cpractical.\u201d Because why can\u2019t dating be practical? We put so much pressure on it to go perfectly, which ends up leaving us disappointed nine times out of 10. So, if it helps, try looking at dating as less of a tossup and more of something that you can plan for. It might not work for everyone, but it\u2019s worth a shot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u201c16 ways men and women date differently, and first date tips for both\u201d via <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gq-magazine.co.uk\/article\/first-date-tips-for-men-and-women\"><strong><em>British GQ<\/em><\/strong><\/a><br>\nThis dating advice article is rather blunt and to the point, but we appreciate the honesty. You might find it a bit stereotypical\u2014for example, not every woman overanalyzes everything, and not every man is turned off by over eagerness\u2014but there are a lot of good truths in here that are worth remembering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u201cYou\u2019re doing it wrong: 10 new rules for dating\u201d via <em><a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/\">New York Post<\/a><br> <\/em><\/strong>We\u2019re fascinated by the concept of dating rules because they keep changing. Any time a new list or dating advice article insists that we\u2019re \u201cdoing it wrong,\u201d we\u2019re all ears. One new rule in particular that caught our eye? A lot of people aren\u2019t waiting until the third date\u2014or even the first\u2014to have sex anymore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c<strong>21 Red Flags That Your Boyfriend Sucks\u201d via <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.seventeen.com\/love\/dating-advice\/a39114\/red-flags-that-your-boyfriend-sucks\/\">Seventeen<\/a><br> <\/em><\/strong>The headline made us laugh, but seriously, the advice inside is spot on. Timeless, too. These 21 red flags are things that we have no problem pointing out to our friends, but sometimes have a hard time recognizing for ourselves. In case you need to hear it, here it is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u201c30 Truths About Dating in Your Thirties\u201d via <em>Verily<br> <\/em><\/strong>A lot of dating advice articles target specific groups of people: a younger generation, clueless online daters, women over 40, the newly single. But daters in their thirties are often ignored. They\u2019ve been dating for about 10 years now, and it\u2019s assumed that they know what they\u2019re doing. But people in their thirties need dating advice, too! Times have changed for everyone. Single people in their thirties often feel the need to over-apologize for being single. There\u2019s a lot of pressure to be married and have children by the time you\u2019re thirty-something; to some, being single in your thirties might feel like a failure. (It isn\u2019t.) So, let\u2019s see more dating advice articles for people born in the \u201880s, please.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u201cWhat It\u2019s Really Like To Be Single In 2017, Because \u2018Hookup Culture\u2019 &amp; \u2018Dating Apocalypse\u2019 Don\u2019t Define Us\u201d via <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bustle.com\/p\/what-its-really-like-to-be-single-in-2017-because-hookup-culture-dating-apocalypse-dont-define-us-35644\"><strong><em>Bustle<\/em><\/strong><\/a><br>\nBeing single right now is complicated. A lot of people think they know what it\u2019s like. But unless you\u2019ve actually been single in the last year or so, then chances are, you probably don\u2019t. This article helps paint a clear picture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u201c9 real people share the best relationship advice they\u2019ve ever heard\u201d via <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.businessinsider.com\/relationship-advice-from-reddit-2017-4\"><strong><em>Business Insider<\/em><\/strong><\/a><br>\nSometimes, the best pieces of relationship advice are the tried and true ones that have yielded real results.
