Do You Actually Want Him… or Just the Validation? (Why You’re Attracted to the Wrong Men)

from Self Concept Bestie Podcast · host younowimagined

In this episode, we’re getting honest about something that might be hard to hear… but will change the way you approach dating forever. Do you actually want him… or do you just want to feel chosen? I break down why so many of us get caught up in “chemistry” that’s actually anxiety, why we chase validation without realising it, and how your nervous system might be leading you towards familiar patterns instead of healthy ones. We also go deeper into the question you need to ask yourself: 👉 If you got everything you wanted from them… what would it actually give you? Because the feeling you’re chasing? That’s where your real power is. I also share how learning to date yourself through solo dates, showing up for yourself, and creating your own sense of validation shifts everything in your relationships. If you’ve ever felt confused, attached too quickly, or like you’re constantly trying to “figure someone out”… this episode is for you. Website: https://younowimagined.com
