someone for the long haul, they'll want to build it with the actual you, not a tidied-up 'easier to love' edit of you.

Honestly I do want to date, I just don't want to pull anyone into all my chaos, for their own sake 😅

That's rough but I completely get it. When I'm in a low stretch I do the same with friendships, I pull back so I'm not dragging anyone down with me. I think in both cases we could stand to be a lot gentler with ourselves. I don't believe my friends or a future partner would read it that way, and if someone did read it that way, then they were never the right fit
