She captioned the clip: ‘This is one of my best dating tips! Let me know if it helps!’
‘Here’s a super simple switch that’s going to change the way you think about dating.
“We don’t say ‘I like this person’ or ‘I love this person’ until we’ve been on a significant number of dates with them,” she said at the start of the clip.
The therapist explained that you should instead use the phrase: ‘I’m curious about this person.’
She explained that if you convince yourself that you like or love someone too soon, your brain begins to think that they are always kind, funny or caring, instead of identifying that these are only signs of , that they are a good person.
‘Someone could show signs of being friendly or playful or intelligent early on in dating, but when we say they are like that, our brains stop integrating information that says otherwise.
“And it’s important that we don’t allow that information to come in until we’re in a more engaged and safer place with them,” she explained.
Taylor added that you need to ‘gather data’ before making a decision about someone’s personality.
People flooded the comments section praising the mental health counselor
She explained that you should never create your ‘own story’ when you meet someone new.
‘Let them show you, let them write the story. So until they do, until you get to know them, stay curious,’ she added at the end of the clip.
People flooded the comments section praising the mental health counselor.
One person said: ‘Such good advice.’
Another wrote: ‘It’s good. Keep your emotions in check. Trust, but verify and be curious about them.’
‘This is brilliant… Thanks for that! “I collect data. I’m curious.” No conclusions have been drawn. My eyes remain wide open,” one user added.
One user commented: ‘Love this.’
