Hello everyone, just as the title says, does anyone agree?
Sounds like a depressing title, but I am actually happy. I have great friends, a job I love, I’m good looking – or so I’m told, muscular, fit, good hobbies.
I just don’t think relationships are worth it though, and this quite saddens me.
I have had this twice now; I meet a girl, I like them and see them twice in quick succession, then they switch up. Short replies. Long wait times (not that I care about this – just highlighting the shift in energy) and it all goes stale. Why is this? Im starting to think relationships aren’t worth it. I’ve had 4 girlfriends – one long term (2.5 years) and 3 ridiculously short term, with one of them being a year on and off. Other two, literally a month each through my own decision.
It’s just more of a lonely feeling than anything else. Like I said, I’m really happy and have a good life. I would like to meet someone cool but even just the games such as cryptic texts, referencing other dates I.e. girl I recently saw made it clear she’s got options (again that’s fine but I just don’t like it) all makes me think what’s the point? I just want genuine connection.
I believe social media and apps have ruined dating, and I genuinely think I’m put off the idea of being with someone now. Does anyone agree?
Thanks for hearing me out.
Tl;dr – I don’t think relationships are worth the hassle/games that a lot of people (both genders) play and plethora of options in one’s hands.
