Update Your Tinder Profile

From Fishing Without Bait 262

I remember one time I was helping a person prepare a revised profile to be on a dating site. And he was getting many individuals who perhaps needed more help than he was qualified to give. So I had him add a line down at the bottom saying "the emotionally needy need not apply." It's a very upfront way to do that. Yes indeed. Now often there's individuals that we encounter in our life, perhaps people that we work with. Maybe colleagues, classmates, that we have to tolerate. We have to tolerate. But I ask people. Okay. Well given the fact that you work with them. Would you choose to participate in anything with them outside of work. Would you invite them to your child's birthday party? Would you invite them to your birthday party or a family gathering? A family reunion of yours? And if the answer is no then Mike they really don't need to be in your life. And one of the hardest things is to sever that type of connection without hurting anybody's feelings. There's going to be some losses. There's going to be some discomfort but Mike we're not responsible. Possible for other people feel as long as we're doing no harm as long as we're doing no harm and can separate ourselves gracefully from that situation. You and I often talk about planting flowers and pulling weeds.
