“Drew Barrymore Recounts Disappointing Encounter: Ghosted After First Date!” Drew Barrymore recently shared her experience of being ghosted after a first date during an episode of her talk show. After exchanging texts with a man following their dinner date, the communication suddenly stopped. Barrymore expressed her surprise and disappointment over the situation, emphasizing that such behavior is not something she would do herself. She acknowledged that ghosting can happen to anyone, regardless of how respectful they are towards others.
During the show, Barrymore discussed the incident with her co-hosts and joked about the cryptic nature of modern dating communication. She highlighted the importance of not investing time in people who do not value it, referring to them as “time-savers.” Barrymore also reflected on the tendency to question oneself in such situations and emphasized the need for self-compassion and kindness.
The actress, known for her openness about her personal life, has been navigating the dating scene and family life post-divorce. She is dedicated to raising her daughters with care and understanding, drawing parallels to Moon Unit Zappa’s book about parenting without a guidebook. Barrymore’s message to herself and others is to treat themselves with kindness and deserve nothing less than goodness in their interactions and relationships.
“It took a considerable amount of time to recover from, especially since it wasn’t within the confines of the traditional family structure that I had always promised myself I would create for my own family, as it was not the environment I was raised in,” she mentioned, as reported in the original piece on People.
