• relax
• don’t get attached to the idea of the person, spend time and get attached to the legacy you’ve built together.
• be yourself, as quaint as that sounds. Nobody likes the stressed out “I gotta get her or Ill die” kind of vibe. Be a friend first.
• if she ghosts you then count your blessings, you probably dodged a bullet.

Think of it this way: remember that sleepover playdate that lasted two days too long? You both had enough before it was over?

Yes that thing, some people like to keep their eyes open for that kinda stuff before stepping into a relationship. And it’s a good practice. Other people have that “yes let’s go!!!” kinda thing and that clashes sometimes.

Anyway that’s what I’ve learned so far.
