ANECDOTE

Leaving For Timeline Alignment

  • Alison left a four-year relationship because they were on different timelines and she wanted marriage and kids.
  • She dated immediately and met her husband next, showing decisive action after a breakup.
ADVICE

Act Like The Bus Isn't Coming

  • Treat mismatched timelines like a missing bus: keep moving to the next stop rather than waiting.
  • Prioritize time-sensitive goals like having children and don't hope someone will change.
ADVICE

Vet Dating Coaches Carefully
