getting reaaaal personal at the end of the vlog, dating is NOT FOR THE WEAK LOL (and my date was boring so it's officially hot girl self care fall 😂😂)
Hey Tara! do you know if you have to read the book series in order? I got “things we hide from the light” just not sure if one book comes before the other , I tried looking it up but didn’t find much. Thanks for your help
Glad to know I’m not the only one that has had been a situation with a guy that made me feel uncomfortable
Omg I can relate to your story way too much. Im sorry he made you feel that way. Guys are so confusing and misleading. Ive been in the same situation as you and felt so taken advantage of. Dating is hard but i feel like its worth it if it means findinf that special person.
sorry your last date was a dud.. but on the plus side, more hot girl self care 😊 😉
I cannot believe someone did that on your date… that would be such a horrible experience, I’m sorry! The right person will come along when you least expect it ❤ cheers to hot girl self care fall😂🍂
Just remember NO is a complete sentence and if you tell a partner no and they do not comply that is coercion. You dodged a bullet with those two dates. ❤️
The way my JAW DROPPED when you started talking about the 2 dates. THE AUDACITY!!!!! You are such a sweet soul, and someone out there will appreciate you for everything you are, Tara. Sending you loveeee ❤️
lol literally like wtf hahaha
My jaw dropped toooo .. I’m glad you’re in a strong enough mindset to see when a man IS not acting OKay … bless you ❤❤❤❤
Honestly the ending of this video made me feel so much less alone since I’ve been experiencing the same things. Thank you for sharing with us ❤️ I know you’ll find your right person at the right time
Dating is a challenge, and it is certainly not easy. While you are enjoying being single, remember what Gloria Steinem said: “A woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle.” You are good enough as you are. Keep that close to your heart and some day, you will find someone who is good enough for you!!❤️❤️
Miss Tara Michelle, you are ALWAYS enough ❤ loved this whole vlog girl and always grateful when you open up with us
Dating is definitely hard but don’t give up! For me it was when I stopped putting pressure on it and relaxed I found my person. Every relationship is different but I instantly felt comfortable and safe, now married five years. Good luck!
I legit just started reading Fourth Wing last night and ended up sitting there for 6 hours straight until I had to FORCE myself to stop & go to bed 🤠 it is worth all the hype.
It’s honestly crazy how much joy I get from getting in bed at night and watching Tara😂❤
Also, really appreciate you sharing that, and knowing that we’re not the only ones going through these same situations 🫶🏼💕
I’m so sorry you went through that. I’ve been there and it’s so hard to not take things personally or feel like you weren’t enough. You are enough and you didn’t deserve that. And you did nothing wrong. I wish you peace as you take a break and help yourself heal. We love you! Also, loved the purple sweater on you. So adorable.
I'm 27 years old and I've never had a boyfriend and it seems like with time dating gets worse and worse and it is a lot harder to find decent men out there and sometimes I think maybe its me and I'm the problem BUT seeing someone as great, sweet, successful and beautiful as you go through those dating experiences.. wow I really am shocked.. It's really not us but the men 😐 thank you for sharing I know it sucks but it feels a little comforting knowing this experience can happen to anyone and its not just me.. love you Tara!
ILYSM Tara! The way you are being so vulnerable rn…courage, confidence and humor! You’re amazing. I also believe we have multiple soulmates in this lifetime. There’s no timeline and the way you live life and inspire others to live as well is so motivating. Those BOYZ (cuz ew) need someone on their level…that low gross shallow level. LOL. Again Ty for being you!!!
One general rule from a few dating experts I have listened to is don't sleep with them until you both make the commitment to be exclusive. Men will always try to sleep with you when they are attracted to you and often times if you do give in too early, there is not enough of an emotional connection to keep pursuing you after that. Not always, but as a generalization you should solidify really getting to know someone as a person before giving that part to them. Especially with men, they literally move into a different part of their brain after they sleep with you and if you don't first establish that connection often times once they get that part they will stop wanting to get to know you! UNLESS there is already a deeper connection established. Again, there are always exceptions, but this is a thing that happens often and that's why dating experts say don't give that part away until you have a commitment to be exclusive with each other. A couple of dating coaches I love on RUclips are Matt Boggs and Matthew Hussey. 👌
Yes, exactly what I wanted to say!
Not always the case though, I was physical with my husband before he asked me to be his girlfriend. However, we moved fast and got married a year after dating and here we are going on our 5th wedding anniversary. Everyone's situation will be different but I will say, the connection I had with my husband is one I had never experienced with anyone else so I know that we might be an exception to the rule.
@@wendyvick9908 There are always exceptions, of course! That's why I kept saying that it's a generalization. It's just a general guideline while out in the dating world. Men and women's minds work very differently when it comes to this, so it's good to understand that part of them.
The connection is real thing , it’s a mental game sometimes, as some men will give friendship to get sex and women will give sex to get friendship
Make a list (really!) of your non-negotiable and don’t compromise and no rush ❤
So true. I dated my now fiancé for 6 months before we slept together. We have been together 10 years now, and it’s the best relationship I’ve ever had.
Aww Tara sending you hugs. These boys don’t deserve the type of woman you are. Never stop being you. ❤❤❤
Catching up on my Tara videos :) I’m so happy she’s so calm and wonderful
I’m honestly so glad your talking about your dating experience on here and being so open. It’s something that us women experience with men constantly flirting and sexualizing us, it disgusts me 100%. Which is why I usually don’t put myself out there and wait to meet someone naturally. I hope you don’t let it hurt your confidence because it didn’t have anything to do with you, you show up as you and they decide what they feel it’s something out of your control. When will men be decent human beings? Who knows.. I know NOT ALL men are like this but a big majority of them are and it’s disgusting. God bless all the women dating and dealing with this right now, be you and be alert don’t let anyone convince you to do anything you feel uncomfortable with, simply stand up and leave! No explaining needed.
So glad I'm out of the dating scene it can be so toxic and draining😢 good luck Tara, all I can say is right guy right time, he's out there ❤
I will never get over you being back in Toronto and going to all the places I go to. We even go to the same nail salon and then I go to that Indigo after every time. Coolest/most relatable vlogger ever 💕
the things you said about being a good judge of character and being blindsided by the sudden change in behaviour , I think its getting so damn common now. In a whole different part of the world, I have experienced the exact same thing. Not only feeling hurt and "used' but also questioning our own judgement is a very disorienting thing. My friend once said that men have just gotten better at wearing the mask of a "nice genuinely good guy" and usually after 4 dates it slips off and you see their real intentions and actions. Its so damn hard, this dating thing. Hang in there, we are all in the same boat and I continue to hope that I'll find someone great but until then I am enjoying the single life
Tara doesn't even need makeup! She always looks so flawless !
I decided that dating isn't for me. I will just stay single and enjoy being with myself. I am 53 years old and even in my age group all men want are to sleep with you on the first date. I am not about that, at all. So, I don't usually get asked on a 2nd date. I get made to feel bad because I don't want some guy fondling me and I don't want to fondle on them. Just disgusting if you ask me.
I am so sorry that happened to you! You deserve a beautiful, honest and kind man!!
YES the dating world is TRASH rn. Thank you for sharing your stories, it make us single girlies fell not so alone!
Hey T, you have such a healthy outlook on dating. You put yourself out there, you are loving to yourself if it doesn’t work and you then gently put yourself back out there. I’m a diehard fan.🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡
I agree with you, and was pretty much thinking the same thing. Tara is one smart cookie and she will navigate this dating world just fine!😊
You will definitely find your person when you least expect it, and they will be perfect for you. Have fun and enjoy the journey!
Ugh I feel you on the dating. Been single for 4 years and kept getting dead ends, felt like wtf is wrong with me that nothing is working. And then all of a sudden I met the most perfect guy. I swear good ones are out there just very slim!!
I feel the same about dating, its just always so dissapointing😢 i totally understand you. I was so shocked about the first one, i am so sorry you had to go through that❤😢
I’m so sorry to hear about your dates, I can’t believe they did that to you!!! You are SUCH a sweet, genuine, beautiful human being, the RIGHT person WILL come into your life when he is supposed to. If the 3rd date, god forbid, is awful, just give dating a break…when you stop looking, you will randomly meet someone that will make your heart swell. BUT a piece of advice, if they give you butterflies, it’s not always a good sign…it’s a warning. Take a good minute to sit with yourself and ask your spirit guides for some guidance…I’m a huge believer in them giving you signs when you need it. ❤️
I'm so sorry you went through that Tara, dating can be really hard. Just know it says so much more about them, than it does about you. You should be proud and thankful for being your honest and true self, and someone is going to see your worth one day ❤
I’ve been where you are right now. So funny to be able to recognize those “single feelings” you’re talking about and then being in a super healthy relationship. I hope this gives you some sort of motivation. Good people attract good people. Wishing you the best of luck in this exciting yet super over stimulating ✨dating world. ✨
Aww my stomach flipped when you were talking about the dates. It is so relatable and honestly has scared me off dating. I also loveeee being single so the urge to start dating again isn’t strong because I genuinely don’t feel like I need it, but I’d love to get married one day. The struggle! I’m sorry you had to go through that. Men get away with it as “the norm” but it’s so fucked up to do that to someone. Just because it’s relatable and every woman has experienced it, doesn’t mean it’s okay. I have met wonderful, gentle and considerate men before and do believe it’s possible. Hang in there ❤
You actually inspired me to start reading again I am so into it now that I bought a kindle and it literally goes everywhere with me I’m always reading now thank you 😊
Loved the transition of the curtains closing at the end of the night and opening the next morning! 🤍
When I tell you that I’m a fall gurly~ 😩 pumpkin spice, sweater weather outfits, god I just love this season 💕✨
saaaaaame girl same
Where is the purple sweater from??
its so fun but funny to watch and hear about your nails cause I remember when you never got them done and now you can't go back and I love it! Also the color is cute!
The way that i audibly gasped! Oh my lord, I’m so sorry you had to go through that. I have been with my husband for 16 years, and I always tell him I would have no idea how to navigate this new dating world. It is most def not for the weak. Lol! Sending love ❤
As someone who struggles with jaw pain from clenching- it's awful! I also get migraines from it too when I'm clenching more than usual (mostly from extra stress). Stretching, neck, and cheek massages all help relieve some of the tension for me.
A court of thorn and roses series is very good. First one is a bit slow but book 2, OMG. So good! ❤
As for the jaw pain, Botox really helps. I have terrible TMJ and the Botox helped so much!
I met my husband I was 35, we started as friends and 2 was after going on real dates he proposed. Then i had our son, and married 3 😁 yrs later. He passed suddenly in early 2001. For those few yrs we had, I always felt loved and important to him. You will find your true love when the time is right for you and I will jump forward joy for you. Don't feel rushed and relax.
I appreciate you being honest about your dating recently, I do. I’ve been through the same situations recently and it does tug on your trust levels, really. Love you girl and I hope this date is a better one. 🩵
I just recently started acotar as my first fantasy series and I LOVEEEEEEEEE😍😍😍😍 it honestly took me a little to get into it, but as soon as I fully indulged, I was hooked!
my 2 cents. I was in the dating world for 18 yrs till i finally found a healthy relationship. BUT i didnt feel the spark. I legit friend zoned my bf & just kept him as a friend till finally my mind shifted & I allowed myself to be loved & cared for the way i should be. Hes not my type at all. So i literally had to put my ego down to genuinely fall for my bf. and now we're 4 yrs in & im madly in love with him.
Tara I have really bad tension headaches and a bad back instead of meds I listen to different frequencies to ease the pain. There’s a frequency for everything that ails you and more and they work. You have to find the one that works for you. They have binearal beats and rife and so many more with or without music. I use them with ear buds and I even sleep and meditate to them. I hope you try this and find the one that will help you especially with your TMJ cause I have that also but since listening to the frequencies it’s not hurting anymore. Love and hugs from PA, USA! ❤
The way you like the build-up of characters through a series, I believe you would love acotar! Started it this time last year!
I hate that those guys treated you the way they did. You deserve so much more. Nails look great and love the idea of the monthly facial for you - hot girl fall self care!! Go for it.
I’m concerned about your pain and hope it gets resolved quickly. ❤
I’m sorry dating hasn’t turned out well! I hope things get better for you. Remember you’re beautiful inside and out and you’ll find someone who will know your worth and love you. ❤
Thank you for being so vulnerable!! I really do believe that the perfect man will present himself to you when you're least expecting it! When you no longer seek! He who deserves you will show himself to you with time!! Do not give up hope :))
I also struggle with jaw pain and headaches and I usually get Botox to relieve the clinching. I can’t tell how much it’s helped with tightness in my jaw, neck and horrible headaches!
You deserve a man that respects you and loves you. Men are so gross I completely get you when you said you felt icky. I’ve gone through a couple situations like that. Don’t let the horrible situations you’ve been in stop you from finding a great man ❤️ you’re a wonderful person Tara!
thanks so much for being so genuine on here - i’ve been feeling the same
Tara I'm so sorry to hear about this. I think it's good to wait before going further for awhile. It forces the guy to value everything more because he had to wait or work for it. Sometimes time just is needed to develop that attachment. Also that guy who was pressuring you sounds like the worst! Don't let guys push you around like that. Don't give a guy a set day or amount of dates that you will sleep with him. Keep it mysterious and just say you're not ready and it takes time for you to get there with someone and leave it at that. Because once you start saying what number date and all that it can come off technical and they start doing the math. It's not up for bargaining. If you don't say a date or time, it will keep them guessing. Weed out the lame guys this way. And don't give up on dating. Just go on dates when it feels right. Best of luck girl! :)
I LOVE fall, and live in Florida where the seasons and leaves never change, thank you for the coziness!!!
Ok girl I hardly ever comment on anything but I have to say U R AMAZING and I feel like we are low key besties from watching you so often 😂lol eff those guys or any guy that does that..Ur beautiful, smart, creative and I see u come from great parents! You have no idea how many [lifestyle] ideas you’ve given me and how uplifting u are!! Keep your head up and keep it movin!✌🏼😘😘
im so sorry to hear about those two awful dates! its their loss anyway! keep your head up tara, im sure your special person is out there just waiting to meet you too!
wow I’m beyond ready for you to read ACOTAR and oh man you’re going to love it!!!! 💗❤️💗❤️
I’m sorry you went through that with those guys! I’m going through something similar and it sucks. Hopefully things will get better from here on out.
I kind of share the same feeling about not being confident in yourself, because that's how I'm currently feeling for weeks now. however, I'm sure we'll get back on our feet and find ourselves again 🤗
I used to be the same way until I started getting migraines. Now if I have a hint of a headache I take excedrin cause I don't want to be knocked out for 2-3 days!
oh my god my excitement at hearing you're going to start dabbling in fantasy!! we are HERE FOR IT YES
I do that when I have a headache. Unless I wake up with a migraine. Then it takes 48hrs to get it under control. I have to be in tears or knowing a migraine is coming or a cluster headache.
Sorry you had to go through that. Always trust your instincts, gut whatever you may call it. The right guy is out there you just haven’t met him yet, but girl when you do ✨ it’ll be magic and worth the wait ❤
My fave Autumn colour is a Deep teal. Looks great with burgundy, plum, indigo all the deep colours. love a Mood colour. Great Vlog. you be you 😎☕💋
I’m about to start Fourth Ward too!
I’m so sorry you’re going through it with the shitty men…you’re awesome and I love your mindset on the whole thing. You’ve got a great head on your shoulders, a good support system, and a lot of love to give and you’ve got this! ❤️
You are a gem. Those guys especially the one who spent so long trying to convince you to go to bed with him are the losers. The second guy maybe just wasn't feeling what he thought he should be feeling but he should have been honest and open with you instead of leaving you hanging. Dating is definitely a roller coaster and it seems like most people who end up in relationships have met in really random ways or are friends of a friend who you met at a party or activity. It's harder for someone who doesn't work in an office setting because it cuts out all of those potential connections. You will find the one. It will happen. Just have faith that you really are a gem.
Hey girl, been watching you for years and first time commenting but just want to say that God put on my heart that your soulmate is right around the corner as I was watching the last bit of this. ❤ hang in there
If you're looking for a great book series to add to your collection, The Queen's Rising and the Queen's Resistance are amazing! Highly recommend. I've read that series multiple times now, it's that good! Also reading The Red Queen and the first book has been really good as well. Definitely check them out!
Hang in there - dating is wild but my mom always told me that’s there a lid for every pot! It took me awhile & I found mine. We are together 26 years. Love u baby girl
What I like to do is set a 10 minute timer towards the end of the night and I put everything away that I can in those 10 minutes. Usually it ends up being shorter than than but knowing its just a short time and I set a reminder so I don't forget. That way I don't get a huge build up of stuff that will overwhelm me if I put it off.
The transition you did with the curtains was really 🔥🔥🔥🔥 not expecting that 🔥
For the jaw pain do you know if you grind your teeth at night? I had something similar and was recommended a mouth guard by my dentist. It made a big change for me. I hope it's nothing serious.
Oh I feel you with the dating issues. Every time I start to go on dates again, my confidence drops and I feel soooo horrible. So I‘m on a break of dating, AGAIN! 😅
Oh Tara. I’m so sorry you had to endure those dates. I had a similar experience YEARS ago when traveling to Cabo. The guy LITERALLY asked me this: “What do I have to do to get you to sleep with me tonight?”
I talked to him maybe a total of 25 minutes!! It really turned me off from dating and I have only been on a smattering of dates ever since. It has affected me I more than I thought because I 100% expect every guy to either ask similar questions or act like that guy did to you. So, I am actually a bit scared of dating. I am glad you are still open to it, so good luck. I really hope you can find one of the few respectful guys left.
Tara!!! I am absolutely in love with your tea mugs!! Where are they from?
I love a good book series when all the main characters get a book.
17:20 you should try A Court Of Thorns and Roses, it’s a fantasy series (with some spice) that I think you would love
Love Sarah J. Maas!
I believe that the universe has a plan for us and when the universe knows you are ready, it will bring you someone special who is meant to be in your life❤
Good morning Tara happy Wednesday morning and I loved your vlogs and you are amazing Supporter and I'm proud of you
Tara you have to read a court of thorns and roses for fantasy!! It's so good I couldn't stop reading.
Sending a big hug! Hope you're feeling better and that you had fun on your date if nothing else 🥂
my date was a hard no but I am feeling much much better 🥰
The nail color is sooooo cute! I'm obsessed!
Where is the rug in your bedroom from? Love it and have tried to find it online but can’t! ❤️🔥❤️🔥
Have you thought about a Matchmaker? Just a thought. It might be an interesting alternative.
okay I commented this on one of your other videos because you asked for book rec but because you brought it up here YES to fantasy!! Truly a game changer. Fourth wing was incredible 😭😭 but the series just started so we unfortunately have to wait for more and you NEED to read ACOTAR! & the little heart glass is adorable!! 💘
Taraaaaaa I LOVE FOURTH WING! Haha highlyyyyyy recommend it’s one of my favourites of all time! Dating can be so awful and draining but don’t let these awful men wreck your confidence they ain’t worth it ❤️
I did the brown nails for October and agree that the maroon nails feel good for November, it's what I'm going to do :)
so glad u get the vibe hahahah
The chat at the end was so relatable. Thank you for sharing 🩷🩷🩷 I don’t feel so alone in these experiences ❤️🩹
I’ve been ready for fall since last fall🥰love your vlogs Tara, they really help me get through the week❤️
Hey Tara, I have been on hundreds of dates, ( bear in mind I am a lot older than you). Finding the right person is really tough, I found tge right person for me 20 years ago, unfortunately I wasnt the right person for him and I well and truly got my heart broken. I have never felt the same about anyone since and I have tried and have had several relationships since then. None of them worked. I have now resigned myself to being simgle for the rest of my life and honestly it has been liberating. I have male friends who I go out with purely as friends and we have fun. Dont try too hard, if it is right you will both know ❤xxx
The best vlogs ever.. watching it now I usually watch it at night time
So sorry to hear that you went through that. It’s totally valid that you felt those things. Fuck these guys who think women are objects. You are strong, independent, and enough. Thanks for sharing that with us. Love love your videos. As a single momma I live through your videos and they bring me so much peace 🩷
I got the same color two weeks ago and got a lot of compliments on it! Good choice!
Tara- try botox in the masseter muscle! It stopped the tight jaw and head aches for me
The putting clothes away struggle is real 😂 me every time.
Tara, I feel you and I understand you so deeply. Dating is very difficult, but remember always that this is why also it’s very interesting. Take your time and the best is yet to come. Fingers crossed. 🫶
Both of those guys are absolutely disgusting, but I truly feel like you will manifest the kindest and most wholesome guy that you deserve because you are just that and some!
sneaky fam!!!!
I have never wanted to try a product after watching an influencer, but I am going to have to find that tinted moisturizer!
Ergo mixing my pattern when dating helped me a lot. I’m not a believer in the “you are what you attract” mantra. Take your time and get to know what you want. When the right person comes, you’ll know.
STILL DO ACOTAR!!!!!!! I cant stop thinking about it
I grew up parents who rarely took pain medicine for headaches.
I honestly tried but when I get a headache, it makes me nauseous and I lose my focus and concentration.
I eventually caved and will take an extra strength advil when I get a headache. To me, I rather take the painkiller to avoid hours of suffering.
