Good women are generally very lowkey and not that socially visible. The reason you think they don't exist is because they are protecting themselves and trying to avoid unwanted attention. The trash is loud and plentiful, but there are more beautiful feminine souls than you think.
I wish more men AND women would just say, “I wasn’t taught how to date properly. I’m interested in you though, and I’m willing to learn how to show you that in a way you can actually receive. Just be honest, intentional and teachable. I can work with “I don’t know how.” I cannot work with “this is just how I am” while you proceed to stress me the hell out
dating to marry will make you realize that the "plenty of fish in the sea" narrative is false. alot of people are really not worth that level of intimacy
I think one of the purest forms of intimacy is still wanting someone's presence after an exhausting day. When you're completely drained, don't have the energy to talk to anyone, and all you want is for that one person to be beside you that kind of love feels incredibly special.
