Tactics like daterviews to suss out all the red flags or making ridiculous rules (“I'll never date someone whose first name starts with J again!”) are driven more by our heads than by our hearts. Instead of resorting to the daterview or another hack you can use to know whether this person will be your person, get comfortable with the ambiguity of not knowing. You may find it challenging to relinquish this control (we sure as heck did), but this is what opens your heart.
