Dating While Working on Yourself


Dating is somewhat hard when you’re working on yourself. You’re working on toxic traits of your own as well as getting over what someone has done to you in the past. Not saying that you aren’t over them but in a sense what your ex has done has altered the way you will deal with next person that comes into your life. Getting to know someone new is exciting because it’s like starting all over again. But you have to remember not to bring what you did wrong in your past to a new situation or even assume that they are going to be the same as someone you’ve dealt with before. I do understand that it’s okay to be cautious and pay attention to the red flags so you don’t end up in a similar situation, but being aware of your own toxic traits is important too.
