80 - Texting in Dating Pt. 2

Flying solo today for this special episode, Sabrina is talking about texting while dating. Sabrina's personal experience highlights that the anxiety around texting persists even when trying to disconnect, but it's how you handle these feelings that matter. Texting can trigger black-and-white thinking, where unmet expectations validate negative core beliefs, leading to anxiety. Understanding that people have different texting habits and showing up authentically in relationships is crucial. Focusing on overall relationship dynamics is important rather than just texting patterns. Building security and confidence helps alleviate anxiety. Compromise is key, especially when texting habits differ between partners. Effective communication, setting realistic expectations, and addressing concerns with evidence can help manage texting-related anxieties. Ultimately, texting should not be the foundation of a relationship, and flexibility, understanding, and personal growth are essential for healthy interactions.

I wanted to say, the way you stand up for yourself about your cursing, talking fast, etc… has REALLY helped me feel better about and feel more confident in the way I am. I also can talk really fast and loud and curse. Thank you. Keep being you foreverrrrr! 💗💗💗

[@Sabrina_zohar]

Oh angel, this means more than I can say, THANK YOU. Keep it up baby!!!!

[@seanmakura]

Guests are cool but i could listen to just Sabrina ALL DAY

[@daniimoscatelli]

You have no idea how much I needed this, how much you have helped me & how much I have literally implemented your guidance into my dating life. I’m so thankful

[@MsJackieHoliday]

I absolutely love your speed, the cursing part, the emotional part, the energy. I love everything ❤. Keep up the good work, Sabrina!

[@sprinkles23659]

I spoke to my therapist about my anxiety with texting. I would text someone and use their reply to judge whether I'd done something wrong or they didn't like me. I've really struggled with this and dating.

[@thiamae5914]

You just enjoy being yourself You do YOU and F what anyone who doesn't love you says. Thank you for being unapologetically you! 😘✨

[@r.j.8220]

3 episodes listening, and the level of help your podcast has helped is indescribable. Thank you for being relatable. Sharing your experience as a child and how that affected you and your relationships hit me. Listen all the way to the end, folks.

[@ireneveitia9184]

I think you're amazing. You help me so much.

[@NatalieJaramillo-mq3df]

I’ve found your videos on instagram and it’s already helped so much and this topic specifically. I’m newly dating someone and I’ve always been an avid texter and he isn’t and I kept defining communication and interest based on the amount they were texting me. My interactions with him and hearing your advice made me realize that I have to look inward and be more curious as to where that anxiety is coming from. He’s showing up in other ways, getting together often in person and regular phone calls. I had gotten so used to texting being the main focus in a relationship especially when not together that it is now something I had as a crutch. Thank you so much for this topic and helping me realize the areas I need to work on in myself so that this can be a successful relationship. I kept seeing all the common tag lines and this was a breath of fresh air and helped me think it through more logically

[@bunnynntiger]

I actually love the way you're talking. Because it feels real. I love that. ❤❤❤

[@davek7675]

[@zandrahernandez949]

Thank you so much for this video❤ it helped me so much at this point in my life and also brought me to tears towards the end of the video😭.

[@kallyfour2073]

Newest fan here 💕 I watch you on all platforms and have been meeting to rate for so long. One - you are absolutely amazing & so relatable in every podcast! I appreciate all you give and offer to us because it’s so humbling and relatable to debunk together. More show requests- I know you focus on working through all the things in relationships but I would be so interested to see how you challenge, work, stay positive and overcome the mental struggles and self doubt in the work place /job setting relationship. I struggle with all things self worth, self imagine, trauma etc and struggle daily to not just take everything so damn personal in my work/passion. Again, thank you so much for everything! And keep fuckin doing the work 💕🙌

[@romanazafar2888]

Love you so much and thank you ❤❤

[@DjEnsi]

Once you talked about "being loveable", I balled my eyes out crying 😢. Great episode. I needed this video. I don't have IG anymore, but I remember following you on there. Glad you do KZbin and I follow you on Spotify. But I like to see you in video verses listening on Spotify.

[@taslimafoondun2755]

This was a very powerful video, and you’re simply amazing ❤❤❤ Thank you ❤

[@joey69763]

Great stuff I’ve been binge watching your videos that pertain to me. Your voice reminds me of a young Mel Robbins, I love it haha. I found you thru the Growing Up with Devon podcast.

[@susun7771]

What if..they start the cadence with texts, calls, and then it abruptly changes ? That's what causes me anxiety and mood swings. What's a good approach

In an episode with Dr. David Buss, Andrew Huberman commented on anxious attachment. He said, it's "probably correlated with the frequency of demand of immediate text message responses ... and then as people get attached, depending on their level of anxiety, if they don't hear back from somebody really quickly, where the mind goes is a very interesting aspect. You know, do you become suspicious? Do you become anxious? Can you stabilize your own milieu, or do you need to see the dot dot dot that's coming back? I'd love to see a study on that at some point". kzbin.info/www/bejne/fondhZV5etZ2gMUfeature=shared&t=6292
