Not too much of a ramp, but it’s more of perspective for anyone who feels the same
Looking back on where I started in high school going to college I always knew I was a good at talking with people. Sometimes I do ramble on and sometimes I’m not all the way coherent, but I was always looking for ways to being engaging with people whether I was awkward or not. Knowing this about myself, I felt like it would be really good transferable skills when it came to dating.
From talking to people all my life, I think it finally pushed me into knowing what I want in my current partner and how most of the jobs I’ve had the lessons I’ve learned and the people who I’ve reached out to helped me and where I am at right now. And I give all of that thanks to the many customer service jobs. I’ve worked at. A build up my listing skills, sharpen my adaptability, and focused on being empathetic to other others.
And the thing is, I didn’t even have the most craziest confidence in the world. I just looked approachable and had a welcoming attitude. It hasn’t always been successful in dating, but gave me some great first date opportunities
