The Lies We Tell Ourselves Ep 78

Send us Fan Mail The final episode of the marathon, and I'm not pulling punches. I'm naming the stories we tell ourselves about why love hasn't happened, and gently taking every one of them apart. You know the lies, because you've probably told yourself a few: The men are all bad. Too old, ship sailed. All the good ones are taken, married, gay, or gone. There are just no good ones in my town. Diane has an answer for each, including some Dallas-Fort Worth math that demolishes the "no good men where I live" excuse. But the real moment in this episode is the question I asks near the end: why are you so committed to being right about this? Because here's the thing I've discovered after dating from 16 to 58: your brain is an order-taker. Keep telling it the good ones don't exist, and it will happily go find you more proof. There's a better thing to be right about, and that's where the gold is. This is the last of the twelve. If any of them shifted something for you, I would love to hear it.
