What does putting yourself out there mean? The next question is should you do it? I do not have the answer as to what putting yourself out there truly means in dating, but I'm going to guess and say that it means to just date freely, take as many risk as you can, and lower your standards.
I think that for some people it is really easy just to put themselves out there, but is that the right thing to do. I guess it is hard for me to write about this because I don't really know what the phrase means. I will say that maybe if you're having trouble finding a date or finding time to date; then maybe you may need to make yourself more available. That means to schedule time to date people, meet new people, or just hangout and be sociable. That put yourself out there just sounds like you're a piece of meat hanging in the window waiting to be picked up.
Look there really isn't any set rules to dating. I do understand that you have to do what works for you. I guess I'm writing this to one: to learn what putting yourself out there really means (so if you know let me know), two: to help people understand that you can't give your all to a person; especially if this person will not reciprocate, and three: to help us all understand that we have to have standards, but also know how to have fun and to have balance.
I don't think you should put yourself out there...sounds like you are selling your body or something, but I do believe that we can overcome dating ptsd. Let's just overcome it wisely.
