0:00.0	Hi everybody. Thank you for tuning into the women's dating and confidence podcast. Today's episode is all about anxiety in the beginning stages of dating somebody.
0:20.4	Once we start to develop feelings for somebody, we're actually invested in the beginning stages of dating somebody. Once we start to develop feelings for somebody,
0:23.4	we're actually invested in the result. Like, we want something to happen with this person, and we would
0:29.3	be hurt if something didn't happen or disappointed. And when we're worried and anxious, we have these
0:36.4	thoughts like, what if they change their mind?
0:38.6	What if I make a mistake? What if he finds out this about me? And there's all this kind of anxiety
0:43.1	that can come along with developing feelings for somebody. So that's what I want to talk about today.
0:49.6	Before we get into that, I wanted to share with you that I created a free guide for you. It's called
0:54.3	copy and paste texts for when he's pulling away or acting flaky. And I know so many of you
1:00.8	listening to that have been in situations where the guy is pulling away in one form or another
1:06.7	or he's acting really flaky before you meet him for a date and things like that. So I get questions
1:14.0	about it all the time and I took the top eight most common questions that I get about that topic
1:20.6	and I created a page for each one explaining what's going on in this situation and exactly how you should communicate with him
1:29.0	when he's acting that way. And it's all about maintaining your boundaries and your standards,
1:34.9	but also communicating in a way that is attractive. Because a lot of the times when we're disappointed
1:41.8	or angry or hurt by something that a guy does, we communicate in a way
1:46.9	that isn't very attractive and that we later regret. So I'm definitely going to talk more about
1:52.3	communicating your standards on this podcast, but I wanted to give you a head start and let you know
1:57.8	that there's a free download and the link is in the show notes. And I know that
2:02.8	when you hear stuff like this on the internet, like free blah, blah, blah. You're like, well, if it's free,
2:09.1	like how good can it really be? I put in a lot of effort and I really made it worth your time and
2:16.1	effort as well. So I know that you'll find it
