Hi Fans of the RA show. I'm recently single and no I'm not all 'poor me' about it but this recent breakup is different because of the fact that I've become much more awake in the past few years via this show and the people who come on. I'm sure someone out there has experienced this...how in the hell do you go about dating a zombies...?(hehe) Once you've taken a few steps in the rabbit hole, it just seems like typical dating conversations might be a bit odd. Feel free to chime in with any advice...maybe at some point Richie might do a show on how you deal with the unawakened on the dating scene...
The humbler!!

It usually goes that as you wake up unless your partner wakes with you then you end up going separate ways!
That happened with me... I was with someone for years & although he was open to some stuff, my life took a different path due to the nature of the interests I had! I wanted to follow it far deeper down the rabbit hole & he wanted to just sit on the sofa,drink cans & watch the rugby!!!
I ended up marrying someone who is awake, much more on my level, very open minded but religious! So that does limit how open his mind is... bless him!
I don’t think it’s possible to be with someone who doesn’t know some of this stuff because it does dominate your life in the sense that you want to talk about it, your perception of the world is very different& your values etc shift to what’s important and less superficial!
Even though I have a few friends open to stuff a little, I still don’t have anyone in daily life I can chat to regularly about all this stuff!
It affects your friendships not just your love life! I find most conversions boring & lacking in substance & superficial & those that might promise a little of science or religion or history usually don’t go far because of the lack of fundamental understanding of the subject! It’s just repetitive & scripted!
I sound very up myself but that’s not what I’m trying to say... I don’t think I’m better than anyone at all, I just have different interests and unless I meet someone with those same interests, friendships are a bit boring at times!
I think we need an alternative view dating site!!!

Yeah that’s just it as soon as you start talking about it they either glaze over or shake it off... “if it’s not on the news at 10 then it’s not true”
I’d like to chat about it 90% of my day but no one else is interested...lol I always feel like it’s “oh here she goes again ...”
