Benefits of Looking Forward To Something
Everyone looks forward to something because it is part of life. When we were younger, we looked for most things that were different from what we look forward to now that we are older. Even so, we might still look forward to some of the same things: birthdays, holidays (some more than others), graduation, first job, dating, marriage, anniversaries, raising a family, and more.

How Friendships And Relationships Influence Mental Health And Emotional Wellbeing
Connections and associations are critical in the development of emotional wellbeing since human beings are social animals. Significant relationships offer a feeling of belonging, comfort, and emotional stability which sustains mental health. Having relationships with others makes a person less prone to loneliness which has a close connection with anxiety and depression. Emotional attachment provides comfort in times of stress and increases pleasure in times of happiness. This emotional exchange assists in mood regulation and a feeling of stability, which enables psychological health in the daily life.

The Version of Me That Almost Was
I found the old notebook while cleaning, tucked behind things I no longer used but hadn’t thrown away. The cover was bent, the pages yellowed, the spine fragile from years of neglect. Inside was a version of me that felt both familiar and distant, like meeting an old friend whose face you recognize but whose life you no longer understand.

How Communication In Relationships Protects Mental Health And Emotional Balance
Valuable human interaction is built on open and sincere communication. When people communicate openly, it is done in a way that would allow sharing of thoughts, emotions, and concerns without fear. Such transparency promotes sincerity wherein individuals express themselves as they are but not cloak themselves with assumptions or silence. Being frank gives way to feeling through the air which is bound to cause miscommunication and stress. Being able to describe their needs and feelings, people feel relieved and clear emotionally and build their psychological safety in relations and contribute to the psychological wellbeing, in general.

I Don’t Want a Hero. I Just Want Someone to Talk To.
My first night back in Beijing, I went straight for "Old Beijing Hotpot." Living in the US, this was the flavor I missed the most: the hand-cut fresh lamb, the rich sesame paste, the sugar garlic, and that specific scent of chili oil that instantly hooks your appetite.

Why Dating Feels Like Rejection More Than Exciting New Possibilities
Dating nowadays subjects individuals to a cycle of silent judgment that seems to have no end. Each profile view, message, and swipe is a judgmental situation, even when they are not exchanging words. People start to think of themselves as products instead of people, quantified in photos, biographies, and brief dialogues. A lost match or a message that has not been responded to is personal, although it is not always the case. This recurring experience gradually transforms the perception of individuals. They are not excited but rather tense. Dating is an activity that puts confidence at risk and not leads to confidence. Every encounter is a trial of value that causes emotional weight to take the place of the discovery pleasure.

I am craving you – not in a lustful way – I just want to get to know you more and more … at the same time I am scared to get hurt and that only me is feeling this way … you calm me down and in the first time in forever I can really be myself again …. Not a random version .

Why People Feel Lonelier Now Despite Endless Dating Opportunities
The modern dating apps cause a false impression that love is limitless and one-second away. Having thousands of profiles at any given time, individuals feel that they have unlimited opportunities of meeting the right person. Rather than being optimistic, most of them get overwhelmed by the multitude of choices. The human brain is challenged with the inability to handle all these options and results in anxiety, indecisiveness, and discontent. The government undoubtedly questions their choices, they wonder whether there is a better person just a single swipe. This is endless mental comparison which undermines the emotional attachment and leaves people never satisfied with any kind of association that they have with someone.

Why Relationships Feel Temporary In Today’s Fast Paced Swipe Culture
The world in which modern romance is taking place is rapidly evolving at a pace that is faster than any other generation. Dating applications, social networks, and instant messaging have entirely changed the way individuals meet, bond, and fall in love. What used to take months of interaction is now the case of days or even hours. Though this speed is exciting, it has also produced a new emotional reality whereby most of the relationships become fragile, disposable, and short lived. Swiping culture has not only transformed our way of finding partners, but also the way we appreciate them.

Why Modern Dating Feels Exhausting And Emotionally Confusing For Everyone
The contemporary world of dating seems simpler than ever. Having just several taps on a screen, people can contact strangers anywhere, chat immediately and see inexhaustible opportunities. However, amidst all this convenience there are those that are more exhausted, disoriented and emotionally drained than ever. A one-on-one journey has been turned into a rapid digitization experience that is likely to make individuals doubt themselves, their value, and their standards. There is nothing casual about emotional exhaustion that is associated with current dating. It has been caused by cultural changes, technology and evolving concepts of love and commitments.

I miss my ex.. Content Warning.
I miss my ex. And not in the way of "I still love her" but in the way that I miss my bestest of friends. She introduced me to some of my favorite things, like the song I Love You by Christopher Esclante and the youtube show MyStreet by Aphmau. I still watch and listen to some of the stuff she introduced me to. She made a great friend, and I miss that.
