Hi guys, my name is Lauren Curtis. I've been on social media since 2011 and since then,

I've grown a following of over 7 million people across my platforms, and I have learnt a lot along

the way. The Mental Makeover podcast shares real, very honest advice on all things happiness,

body image, self-love, relationships, spirituality and reaching your goals.

Hello, all of my single friends. I had no intention of recording this episode until my dear

friend Cassandra. I don't even know if she would ever listen to this, but if you do, if she does,

hey, thanks for shooting in. I saw her post and I'm just dawdling right now because I'm trying

to find the post. I saw her re-share a post on Instagram and I clicked into it and the caption was very, it encapsulates everything that I

had kind of spoken about in one of my earlier like dating videos, but I feel like the title of

that video, even though a lot of people listen to it, I feel like the title

of that, no, not video, if I ever say video instead of episode or podcast, you know what I mean,

but that episode wasn't titled correctly and didn't really like get my point across.

But I want to read this caption to you and it's a long one so I'm actually going to break it down

line by line and like add my little tidbit as I go down because it's like a huge

caption and I actually haven't finished reading the whole thing because I wanted to read it

and then speak to you guys about it as I was reading it. But it's for all of my single

gals. I doubt any men listen to this. So all my single gals out there that are in the dating

world and you may just, I don't know, maybe keep finding yourself being treated badly by idiots or being played or you just

haven't found someone that you feel like is on your level and that wants the same things as you

or you keep finding yourself hurt and lonely or being treated badly. This is for you, my lovely ladies.

There's a difference between someone who likes you and someone who appreciates you.

I feel like liking someone is, yeah, that that person's nice.
