I had insanely low self-esteem in my young adult life and so I found those dating gurus. The one I found wasn't as toxic as many. But he still had some real shit advise that I took into my attempts of dating. Sometimes it worked, but very often I was seen as an ass (rightfully so) and when it came down to it. Just being me was the winning combo.

Weird, I know.

Just being yourself is important for 1&2 (and an actual relationship), too many people out here trying to force interactions just because they pass someone physically attractive.
