But no matter her relationship status, Chelsea has been putting within the work to like herself first.
“Listen, I even have a very enjoyable relationship with myself for the previous few years after I’ve realized the importance of really spending time alone without tons of individuals around,” she said on a July episode of the Call Her Daddy podcast. “I’ve actually meaningfully hung out by myself to see what was up with myself, right? And I’ve really, genuinely enjoyed attending to know me.”
And on the time, Chelsea acknowledged why it was so essential to practice self-love before dipping her toe back into the dating pond.
“I even have a number of respect for that point, where you’re out of a relationship or right before you are going right into a relationship, to actually be mindful of that point and the space that you could have, so that you would be able to show up in a very great way for any relationship you are in, and to know when to take a timeout,” she reflected. “A number of people don’t appear to know that it is time to take a break.”
