0:00.0 | What are your dating regrets? Getting so caught up in the fun early stages of the relationship |
0:05.3 | and planning activities for dates that I forgot to just relax and be myself. Take it a week at a time |
0:11.3 | and see how things went. Pretty sure it made me seem too pushy, so things didn't end very well for me. |
0:16.9 | Lesson learned. Chill the F out. The Holy Trinity of bad dating. 1. Not listening when they told me they weren't interested. |
0:23.6 | 2. Not listening when they told me they were crazy. |
0:26.6 | 3. Not listening to myself when I realized I didn't want to be with someone anymore. |
0:32.6 | This is the first time I've ever spelled it out for myself like this and I think I'm seeing a pattern. Glad I admittedly hid some of my hobbies and interests because I were scared they looked dorky. |

1:09.2 | mid-30s with a combined relationship experience of a little |
1:12.5 | over a year. I basically have the romantic intelligence of a 16-year-old. |
1:18.0 | Shooting more shats and being way more confident in my 20s. I was a very good-looking guy with |
1:23.2 | very low self-esteem. Funny to look back at now I'm 46. So far, my biggest regret was moving |
1:29.5 | halfway across the country with someone, and when I was struggling to adjust to that location, |
1:33.9 | they refused to move a few hours for me to a different location. That really hurt. Felt like |
