![The author, Natasha Lunn, reflects on the lack of self-worth & self-respect that once plagued her dating life. The part that stood out to me: "...a gut feeling that told me the men I dated were extraordinary humans, always cleverer and more interesting than I was." Dr. Frank Tallis, a psychologist, shares his perspective; "we often 'aggrandize our own confusion or lack of insight' when we have no evidence of real intimacy," as in, we tell ourselves stories that cast a lack of tangible evidence of love & regard ("my partner does [x] to make me feel loved/i try to do [y] to care for my partner/[z] is why we work together") as "gut feelings" & "chemistry," or what Tallis calls "romantic mysticism".](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:gpidu4kbd6d6k2vxqitj4c7z/bafkreihrslqk5k5tm2ndp6mzzod2w5bdwsswpzzwuo2aqrzxh2imarijzq@jpeg)

dunno how i feel about this considering that im not anti technology (like i think viewing images on a gallery wall is a valuable experience with one specific purpose while viewing images on your phone has a different purpose) but i have been subconsciously trying to listen to more albums in full
