This episode is coming from the We’re Not Really Strangers Self Love pack and the question is: What pattern do you want to break, even if you don’t know how yet? I have a pattern of going on the dating apps and replying and then not going to back on the dating app for a month. I’m terrible at the dating apps and I’m trying to figure out how to make my mind view being on the dating apps as a positive, instead of another job. I’m not yet able to find value in scrolling through ppl and them providing information that may or may not be true, pictures that may doctored or not them—getting catfished. See, it’s so difficult for me to derive positivity from dating apps. I have been going out more and I’m doing that intentionally to meet ppl as well, but I haven’t had any success in the dating realm with that yet.
I’m terrible at dating apps for now, bc I don’t value it positively, it’s just work.
I actually am proud of myself for having a healthier relationship with social media.
I post a lot, but it’s quick and short posts, and I don’t allow comments really, unless you’re a mutual. And I look at social media as a more one sided relationship, where I’m viewing stuff, I may comment, but I don’t need ppl to comment on my stuff. I post for me—and it’s fun for me.
