15 Abr We say that the dating world is so confusing, but I think we cause the confusion ourselves
There was a time when I would spend hours analyzing a single text message that perhaps contained five words. Other times, I would find myself scrolling through an entire text conversation trying to decipher if this guy was interested in me or not.

I've had conversations with loved ones who expressed to me how complicating dating can be, but when they explained their specific situations, it really didn't seem that complicated at all. Scary? Perhaps. Vulnerable? You Camboja noivas bet. But complicating? Not so much. I think it's easier for us to say a situation is hard to understand rather than accepting the true reality at hand.
