Am I being so rigid and so everything's giving me an ick that I'm almost pushing people away, right? And so what I would look at is what I personally did was I needed to find whether I was going to say no to someone or yes to someone, two to three reasons as to why I would say yes or no.

But if that's it, I'll go, okay, that's not enough of a reason. Fine, I'll give this person a try. But if I say, oh, vice versa, ooh, I want to match with this person. They're 6'4". Is there any other reason I want to match with them? No, their prompts are stupid. Their photos look really lame. Okay, so then what am I matching with this person for?

What I hear normally, I'm curious what you hear in your community, is, I hate this, it makes me uncomfortable, I don't like it. And my response to them is, then do it. Because stop trying to avoid things that make us uncomfortable. It's okay that you don't like how you feel, but then we have to look and say, is that because I have expectations on this?

And I think what it comes to is that self-awareness of what is it that's a non-negotiable for me? Fine, you want to have height as a non-negotiable, I'll give it to you. You want to have hair color, right? You're allowed to have things that make you feel turned on by somebody. But we want to look at and say, am I super rigid? Is there no flexibility on this?

Am I putting way too high of an expectation on a dating app? Is my life revolving around if someone chooses me off this app? It's just another modality of meeting people because here's the other side of the coin. Okay, fine. You want to meet someone in person, right? So are you cool with rejection? Are you cool with someone saying to your face, no, thank you?
