And by “limited” I mean next to NONE hahaha. I know I’m physically attractive but I struggle with being socially awkward in some situations. I find my appearance makes men think I’d be more outgoing/confident with dating, and then they notice I’m a little inexperienced eventually. I really want to be able to take more control and find what I want. I’m a lil bit of a recovering people pleaser and I’m trying to put up boundaries without being perceived as a “prude”. Men have taking advantage of my kindness many times, so I find it hard to trust, I think this contributes to my awkwardness with dating.
Any advice? How do I put myself out there and let myself be confident and open with men again?
TIA!
