123. You Don’t Want Love—You Want to Be Chosen

from The Hey, Girlfriend Podcast · host Kindall D.

You didn’t just want love…you wanted to be chosen.And without realizing it, that need can turn into something deeper—an identity.In this video, we’re talking about what happens when your sense of self becomes tied to who chooses you… and why rejection feels so personal, why you stay longer than you should, and why it’s so hard to let go—even when you know something isn’t right.Because this isn’t just about relationships.It’s about the meaning you’ve attached to being picked.At some point, you stop asking “Do I even want this?”and start asking “Why don’t they want me?”And that shift changes everything.This video will help you understand: • Why being chosen feels so important to you • How this pattern shows up in dating and relationships • Why you lose yourself trying to be chosen • And how to rebuild your identity without needing validation from someone elseIf you’ve ever felt like your worth increased when someone chose you… or decreased when they didn’t, this is for you.✨ Let’s connect:💜1:1 coaching &BONUS podcast episodes https://www.patreon.com/Ivebeenthatgirl💜books, coaching and more:https://linktr.ee/ivebeenthatgirl.netAuthors page: https://www.amazon.com/author/kindalld💜MY SOCIALS:YouTube: https://youtube.com/@ivebeenthatgirl?si=ztPs0PVePJP-q6VrI’ve Been That Girl, too Instagram: (151K followers) https://www.instagram.com/ivebeenthatgirltoo/TikTok: (42.7K Followers) https://www.tiktok.com/@ivebeenthatgirl?_t=8s8vdJSMVZv&_r=1Threads: (35K followers) https://www.threads.net/@ivebeenthatgirltoo?igshid=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==Business Inquiries:https://linktr.ee/ivebeenthatgirl.net(Click the envelope icon at the top of the site)
