Healing Dating Anxiety

Being single when you want to be a couple could cause some anxiety. Everything personal comes up for you. Are you pretty enough? Successful enough? Funny enough? Interesting enough? The mind tends to overexaggerate the truth and, when someone you go out with doesn’t call back right away, the mind immediately jumps to conclusions. The old self-doubt creeps back in.
Romantic relationships provide the greatest opportunity for growth. If you can step back and watch what happens to you when things do not go according to your plan, you can deal with the fears that arise and heal them. Even the slightest nervousness can be a good catalyst for transformation. So, instead of drowning your sorrows in a martini, be present to what comes up and know that you have the power to overcome anything in your path.
Remember that you are beautiful, amazing and wonderful and there is someone out there looking for EXACTLY what you have to offer.
Happy Dating!

I agree that relationships can be challenging. In fact, I’ve tried pretty much everything. Now my friend, psychologist Dr. Alexander, showed me what’s been missing. I was looking at the wrong type for me. If you go on Dr. Alexander’s new site, http://www.loveTypes.com, and take the quiz, you’ll find the type that’s best for you.
