#22: The Time I Went on a First Date, and Didn't Realize It
Manage episode 393412133 series 3546122
I'm not sure about you, but I am such a sucker for love stories and in this episode, I’m going to share my story of how I once went on a first date - and didn’t realize it. This episode is a bit of a more personal share and my hope in sharing this is that it’s a) entertaining b) opens you to possibilities.
In my 20s, I wasn’t necessarily looking for a committed relationship. In fact, I was terrified of them. I wanted to travel the world and didn't want to feel tied down and mostly, feared being rejected. I would come up with some reason why I needed to end a relationship or self-sabotage the relationship so that it would end on its own. It was rooted in deep feelings of not feeling worthy of someone's love and attention. And certainly a fear of them discovering who I really was when I was just discovering that.
Well, that all changed when I went on a first date without even realizing it.
