I’ve been dipping my toe back into dating and I’m really practicing not making concessions for men and saying no if it doesn’t feel right. Some of them are easy like the guy who messaged me on an app and told me he isn’t into hook-ups but tried to invite himself over to my house because he was “in the mood”. He claimed he didn’t mean for it to be a one night stand. Uh huh. But no. Then others are harder like someone I went on a date with and it just didn’t feel right even though the person was nice.
Yes, yes, yes! I love the way you use the phrase “showing up well for.” I have a friend who says, “If it’s not a hell yes, then it’s a no.” Learning when and how to put it into practice is the challenge.
I’m loving this! Such a good read. So good to ‘hear’your voice! Xx
Thank you 💚💚
