Hi, I’m Flora Dunn. Love this question.
Flora’s approach to proper dating standards is built on a few core principles:
- Stop accepting “crappy dates” – coffee, drinks, hanging out, “smoke and chill” do not qualify as real dates when you’re serious about partnership and provision.
- Decide the level of dates you actually want (fine dining, experiences, effort, planning) and hold that line from the beginning.
- Communicate your standards clearly and calmly, without overexplaining or apologizing for them.
- Date with discernment: ask smart questions, don’t ignore red flags, and don’t lock in on one man too early.
- Expect generosity and provision as normal when a man is courting you, not as a bonus or a favor.
- Never bend your standards out of fear of “losing” a man; when you raise your standard, you raise the quality of men who qualify.
If you want a deep-dive “definitive guide,” can break this into a structured framework (mindset, screening questions, first-date rules, money/provision, and boundaries).
Would you like a step‑by‑step written guide, or are you more interested in questions to ask on dates to enforce your standards?
