Episode 5 of Becoming American Social
The article I mentioned about struggling with short encounters: https://bit.ly/2uZ1D9T
I am a hopeless romantic. I can't help but hope that one day I'll still run into the love of my life organically, at a local coffee shop and feel an instant connection as he holds the door for me. Go ahead, roll your eyes. Everyone knows everyone only meets on dating apps now, right?
But it's these chance encounters that I think can create opportunities for long, lasting relationships.
The same goes for people I meet on dating apps. Even if it was a momentary encounter, there are guys that I really connected with, who I still somewhat keep in touch with.
So when I match with someone, I go into it without expectation. It may lead to a short conversation, a date, or maybe nothing at all. But if I connect with someone enough, not being physically there won't matter...to me.
Day 5 challenge was to be honest with a guy instead of ghosting.
I was leaving Austin, and didn't get to meet up with everyone I was chatting with so I had a few messages to send before deleting the app again and leaving.
Subscribe, maybe suggest something uncomfortable for me to try, and join me in Becoming American Social.
