EP 594: Sade Curry – The How-To Guide on Dating After Divorce
Why is the modern dating scene so stressful and overwhelming?
Ghost people, future fakers, and the modern dating scene has been negatively impacted by the pickup artist industry. The goal was for men to build their confidence by convincing a woman to sleep with them and top up their score. People are looking for attention on apps, just to see that someone is interested, but not sending a message. The sense of value from the feeling of desire replaces connection and intimacy. This leads to games.
What are some of the unique challenges divorced women face when dating?
If you were married for a long time, you were in a “dance” with this person. No matter how toxic the other person is, both people become unhealthy and there is an unlearning that needs to happen. You need to know the “dance steps” for a healthy relationship. You need to learn how to have healthy conflict and communication skills.
What does it mean to date your Core Values?
It’s important to make a list that really works for you, a list based on your core values, less external values, more about the experience you want to have with this person, how you want to feel together. Create a day in the life with your future partner.
What are some tips for creating a dating profile that attracts a compatible partner?
I have a tip: use your core values to create your dating profile. Who you are? How do these values show up in your life? I published a book fair that reflected my political values, my love of reading, and more. Your profile should tell a story, connected to your core values.
Why is it important to look for green flags instead of red flags?
I teach how to go on a “healthy men scavenger hunt”. Look for men who act in a healthy way and begin to absorb what a healthy person feels, looks and feels like. What do healthy men do differently than unhealthy men? When we focus primarily on red flags, we try to stay safe. Look for generosity, kindness, social skills, and if they have your back and anticipate your needs and comfort.
What are your final tips for post-divorce daters who want to go on their last first date?
If you’re dating, it’s because you want to connect with someone else. Don’t let the speedbumps stop you from reaching this mission. It is worth it to learn how to date in this modern world, to change our habits, to practice new things. Go ahead and get support.
