I (28F) Was at a bar downtown and saw someone who I recognized from being on dating apps. Ive seen him (32M) every time I’ve tried a new app and across multiple apps for a few years now. He was clearly on a date. Can’t lie, I immediately judged him…then I realized.. people probably recognize me the same exact way. I instantly became humbled.
Gave myself my own ick so bad I deleted all my profiles. Still feeling down about being single but realizing that Im probably being recognized in public… ??? made me feel like I might as well just throw myself into the weekly grocery stores flier lol 🥲 I’m so ashamed of how unsuccessful Ive been but now I feel like other people know it too.
edit bc it wont let me respond to that one comment: I live in a city of almost 140,000 people
