“This isn’t the first time I’ve decided to ‘take a stand, grrrrrrr’ against online dating. Or dating in general. And that would last for three or so months before I would find a new ‘hope’ that if I manifested good enough energy, I would receive the same. Maybe something healthy would stick.

I wish I could report that it played out differently, but no. The result was always the same.

My ‘hope’ felt delusional, and I would often wonder, ‘What the actual hell is wrong with me?’

I seriously wanted to know. I needed clarity.

After so. many. years. of working on strengthening my self-awareness and ability to be objective, I couldn’t figure it out.

What were the patterns I was missing? What was the common denominator other than me?’

And then…

OH.

Oh, okay.

Well, shit.

It would take another aching experience to show me. The third ache.”
