Hey there's a lot I could write down but I'm someone whose been through years of therapy after a really rough childhood and I learned how to have high standards for myself from that. I found this sub a few months ago and I remember reading some of the stuff and thinking how I completely agreed with a lot of the knowing your worth approach to dating.

So fast forward to today, things ended between me and a guy who seriously said he wanted to marry me. The issue was there were things I felt were red flags and I just couldn't trust him completely for that reason. But basically, I'm in a terrible emotional state right now and I just wanted to express it somewhere. If this is the wrong place, let me know. I'm just trying to stay strong. Thanks for reading.
