Tired of getting ghosted? Can’t find one decent person on any app or website? Striking out on dates over and over can be so physically and emotionally draining that you might be ready to pack it in, adopt a dozen cats, and start writing blogs about how love doesn’t exist.
Don’t panic just yet because we have some professional advice on how to get back on the horse and have fun dating again:
- First Off, Take A Break.Absence makes the heart grow fonder! Dating expertEric Resnickrecommends taking a 2-6 week break from dating apps and focus on self-care.
- Focus On The Other Aspects Of Your Social Life.If you’ve been using all your free time to go on bad dates, you’ve probably been missing out on quality time with your friends. Take them out of friend dates instead. They may not put out, but at least it won’t be soul-draining!
- Get Comfortable With Saying “No.”Stop taking every date you can base on FOMO. “Trust your gut. If you listen to it, it will steer you away from most of the people who made you feel dating fatigue in the first place” says Resnick.
- Go After What You Want.You might just hate dating because you’re compromising on what you really want. It’s better to have a few dates with people you’re actually into, then a lot of dates with people you’re just taking a chance on.
