No amount of healing resources will ever completely get rid of the fear and discomfort around having to make tough choices or big decisions in life.

What healing resources can do for us though is to expand our capacity and build confidence within ourselves that we can sit with the discomfort and fear that we may experience during those times.

This is usually what is needed to finally move forward with that tough choice that you have been knowing you need to make versus the belief that we have to wait till we don’t feel that fear and discomfort because at the end of the day that probably will never happen.

One of the reasons why I believe people experienced so much anxiety, frustration, and intensity in dating is because they are operating from a belief that they cannot have a life worth living until they find a partner.

While there’s absolutely nothing wrong with having a goal of finding a partner, we have no guarantee of when that goal will actually be achieved.

What if instead of waiting to find a partner to start living a life of happiness and joy, you started creating one now?

Things to ask yourself during a dating audit:

1) Where am I currently meeting people? Do I need to expand? 
2) Are my boundaries that I’ve set around things like texting, communication, s*x and intimacy, and other ways that I want to approach dating still working for me or do I need to tweak those based off of recent experiences I have had?
3) Are there any patterns in the type of people I have been attracting as of late? If it doesn’t feel like they are the type of people that are aligned for me, what do I need to do to change that or what is the block that I need to work on?

People are often times not taught that making a decision, even if we know it is the best one for us at that moment, can feel like a paradox because it can still have some level of harder emotions such as grief, fear, scarcity, etc.

Ultimately it’s about being able to validate that it makes sense to have those emotions but not let those emotions be the dictating force in how we make decisions.

In dating there will be times where it makes sense to take action, such as if you have discovered that this is no longer a connection that is calling to you and you need to cut it off or perhaps a connection that has actually made it to the next level of committing to an exclusive relationship.

The majority of dating though is really about being in an observational state and for a lot of people, especially those who have been out for a while, this can tend to feel challenging because at the end of the day dating actually requires us to be in a state of patience and surrender to figure out if someone is an aligned fit for us or not…

A lot of people who are dating, especially if they have been at it for awhil, can tend to minimize or overlook early signs of red flags or misalignment that can show up in dating. 

This is why having some sort of practice where you check in with yourself after each date and notice how you’re feeling physically, emotionally, and really allowing yourself to be radically honest about your experiences is so crucial.

As humans we can be very black-and-white in our thinking and this extends to how we view relationships. We have been taught to believe that if they are not abusive or unfaithful or full of turmoil, then you stick it out. 

Here’s the thing though…

Misalignment in a relationship is not a fixable issue because this would require both people to be different versions of who they are.

This type of dynamic is actually much more common than people recognize but because it is not talked about or because again we are taught to stick it out unless it is the worst possible case scenario, people tend to stay in these types of relationships well past their expiration date.

That fear that has been keeping you from living authentically because the fear says this might cause our relationships to end or it might require us to make a big change or have to face some hard truths isn’t an unrealistic fear…

There is a good chance that one if not all of those things may happen if you truly step into your authentic self, and while change can be hard, the life that is waiting for you on the other side of your fear is often times so much more beautiful than you could’ve ever expected…

This is a tough truth for people to accept when they come to couples therapy and have been unhappy in a relationship for quite some time AND one that can serve as wisdom for others that are currently dating or in the early stages of a relationship…

Often times what we see as issues in a relationship or in another person after we have been in a long-term relationship with them have been there in some form from the very beginning. 

The biggest difference now is that we allow ourselves to see them or have recognized that maybe we were living under a false assumption that those things would eventually change or weren’t that big of a deal. This is why I really encourage people in the early stages of dating to allow yourself to have standards and get Crystal clear on what you are looking for in another person and in a relationship.

Then the real challenge is to lead with that and not waver from it as a means to save yourself years of heartbreak down the road.

Contrary to what the name may imply, people pleasing is not pleasing to anybody and it actually has nothing to do with the other person…
