Are you impatient? Okay, don’t give me that deadly eye roll. I know how terrible it is to get labeled. I mean, you believe that you are patient. But you are always too quick and hopping onto the next task before the lazy bums set about the first one or your own is over. Still makes you a winner? Kind of maybe? 😛

Jokes aside, if you aren’t one of the impatient people but are dating someone impatient, we have a few tips that might just save your bum:

1. Text before you think

Of course, they are going to jump down your neck and call you all sorts of names even before they read the follow-up text. So, think before you speak because they aren’t thinking as much before they act.

2. Never miss their call

Don’t you dare miss her call. You know what will happen? She will think of a hundred reasons and not one among them will work in your favor. Yep, always pick the call even if you are on the sh*t pot thinking about how shi*ty your shi*ty life is.

3. Punctuality be your mate

God bless you if you are dating an impatient person and love being late. They won’t tolerate the disrespect for time. Everything in their life goes at neck breaking speed. Turn before time or they will turn your life around. Not in a good way!

4. Change topics quicker than NaMo’s tour

Seriously, impatient people get bored real quick. They don’t have the energy to hear you rant and go on and on. So always have a library of topics ready, if you want your date to be memorable.

5. Don’t drag a story. They appreciate quick endings

Have a really amazing story to tell? Tell it if it is short. If you think your sleazy long form humour will get you in their good books, here’s some tissue for your broken heart. They don’t stick for long endings. Short and sweet – that’s more like them.

6. Always have news handy

Impatience tends to make them easily bored. Keep your database updated with the latest to hold their interest. Hot gossip, rumours or wait some amazing inside news. Now, you’ve got them hooked again.

7. Let them *patiently* learn

Never let your impatient partner read this point. Never let them know that their impatience kind of s*cks because you have to be patient with them. More like winning the game like a boss!

8. Damn! Why are you so IMPATIENT

If you love your life or if you really wish not to break up with your partner, never risk calling them impatient. The word is taboo and is best deleted from your vocabulary. We don’t like to see our own reflection at times. They will learn and after all, love is never meant to be easy. So, enjoy the impatience of a brisk love story.

9. Love them

After all, when nothing works, love is always ready with its magical solutions. Love them because they deserve it. Pamper them and let them see what a gem of a heart you have. Often it ends up making all the difference and steadily, you will find the most impatient of person waiting for you patiently to tell them that you love them.

I know this one helped because I have been there, done that.

Add to the pointers because I need to answer my *patient* partner as he gives me a dead-eye stare!

Catch ya soon!
