It's hard to make the call to end a relationship, situationship (or even engagement!) that isn't serving you but often the right decision is to move forward on your own. We’re chatting with Deepti about why she chose herself at the alter on Netflix's Love is Blind – and her self-love journey prior to and after the show. We discuss how to deal when you find out your partner isn't the person you thought they were, why respect is so pivotal for your own self-love, and why the most important relationship is the one you have with yourself.
