I’ve met some really wonderful people online. I tend to find someone I like and then bail on the online dating until I’ve had a chance to decide whether this person is ‘my person’. It’s important for me to communicate that I’m looking for something that isn’t a for-right-now thing.

Whatever the other person says online, I don’t take it personally. They are on their own journey, and I don’t have to expect that I just understand them.

Sometimes things online are clear, and sometimes people make assumptions. It’s up to me to clarify and do it in a way that isn’t intentionally hurting the other person.

Good luck, everybody!
