Relationship Notions We Need to Stop Romantacizing and Leave Behind in 2023

You know what they say, life is an adventure with lessons waiting to be discovered. Each passing year brings a pocket full of experiences, some joyful and others challenging, but all equally important to the contribution of our personal growth. In the past year, we've been through the dating wringer, encountering situations that have shaped our character and dating habits.

But this year, we began realizing and recognizing the detrimental effects of such romanticization. 

So as we step into the new year, we get ready to carry the lessons we learned into the new year and let go of the romanticized notions that keep holding us back from our true potential when it comes to love and relationships. Here's to the new year and to our new and improved dating habits!
