This is NOT an advice thread. Dating has been on my mind. i've been sorta considering dating again but frankly it just seems annoying. I've had a crazy life, made many mistakes, have a WIDE array of interests and experiences - and I just feel like there is no fucking way i could possibly find someone that could even slightly understand where I'm coming from or how I got here. I don't think I'm special, just complicated. So dating just seems like a chore. I'm slim, not unattractive, i have lots of shit to share, but i guess i just feel like i am so different from the guys i meet i couldn't even give two shits about pursuing a relationship. it's like i'm on a fucking island. If you are single and annoyed by the whole idea of dating (like me), what keeps you from getting back out there?? Do you feel like you are somehow missing out? Do you harbor hopes that you could connect with someone, someday? OR, are you in a relationship? are you happy with it? is it serious? what bonds you to this person? Sigh. |

To be honest, after my share of dating experience, I'd have to say.... ....No. There's no way I'm dating another crazy bitch. |

The criticism on the other hand, not so much. As for me, dating seems like it could be a nice experience. I just need to find someone that could handle the romantic and overly clingy personality I've been bottling up over the years. |

Being single is great. Relationships are stressful especially if you're an introvert with poor social skills. Just bust a nut and move on. If you find a female who is actually worth the trouble, then more power to you. But getting into relationships just to say "yay, im not forever alone anymore!" is dumb and most likely will end badly. |

Hmm I don't actually know how to answer this. I guess I seem pretty desperate for a relationship to most people (including myself), but when I think about it, I don't really want one? I don't know how to explain what I'm trying to say because I don't really get it either. I guess it really depends on my mood? I could definitely have a relationship if it was pretty laid back because I genuinely don't have enough time for a person who would expect to see me all the time (+I'm not into that kinda stuff anyway), but there actually aren't that many people who aren't clingy. So there's that. I guess I'm not in the right state for a relationship right now. But I still want one. You see what I mean? I do feel like I'm missing out. But I mostly feel that way cause I've never been in love before (I've dated people, but yeah) and the teenage years are the time when most people go a bit crazy when it comes to romance. I don't know. I really wish I would fall in love to see what it's like, but on the other hand I can't help blocking myself out from that stuff cause I have other things to think about. Meh. I guess I mostly want to date someone so I would stop acting pathetic every time I get drunk hahah edit: I just realised this post makes no sense. I don't think anyone will actually really get what I'm trying to say. oh man |

Can't say I'm not thinking about it, but in the past 1-2 years I've had some experiences that made me realise two things: - I need to get over my depression before I date anyone. Can't love anyone unless you love yourself or something like that. It's not just a phrase, it's my experience. - I will never date for the sake of not being alone. If I fall in love again and meet the girl of dreams I'd definitely go there, but I'm not gonna start dating girls just to find out if we're compatible or just to have someone there with me. To escape the few moments of loneliness I don't want to lose my precious alone-time or my hobbies. I quickly get annoyed if I have to spend much time with one and the same person even if that person doesn't do anything particularly annoying. So my approach is that I only consider relationships with girls I already know quite well to some degree. That I have already spent time together, that I'm already interested in. It usually takes about the same amount of time for me to fall for a girl that it takes for them to store me in the friendzone. Out of frustration (happened every single time I fall for someone) I tried leaving my comfort zone 2 years ago and it turned out bad and gave me some realizations (see above). Now I've stopped giving much of a shit, if it's ever gonna happen it will be 'on my terms', so someone I'm already friends with or at least have known for a while. If not, so be it, I'll just do the same thing I've ever done - try to find activities that bring me happiness that don't rely on other people and just generally fighting my depression. Progress in that department will also make me more balanced and less unhappy which again is more attractive to women (I'd assume) so it's really the best thing I can do. |
I probably regret this post by now. |

Last time I was in a relationship was 2 years ago. I do miss that feeling of having someone special sometimes. I'm not one of those people who feels they HAVE to be in a relationship to be happy. I'm quite shy/introverted. I don't really go out looking for someone, so if I ever did happen to get into a relationship again, the other person would have to make the first move. I'm too much of a pussy to express how I feel as well. There is actually someone I'm rather fond of right now, but like I said, no way in hell am I telling that person. So yeah, if I get into a relationship, i'll be happy, if not, then I'll still be happy. |

I have been in a relationship once, it ended in the beginning of this year. But OT: sometimes I feel that I want somebody beside me then I fap and everything is good again. And I'm more happy when I can use my time how I want. Also: If you are in relationship → No money If you are single → Money! $$$ |

I'm inexperienced when it comes to dating, I'm 19 and I had only 2 girlfriends so far. They weren't exactly the best thing on my life and I don't think I'm interested in having another girlfriend. I can't have what I want from the relationship which is why I lack motivation to even consider it. |

It is actually better to be single while you work out who you are and get yourself together. You can not possibly find the right relationship while you are a mess or simply not ready to be with someone else. I used to really enjoy being single; there is a lot of freedom and fun to be had when you don't need to answer to anybody. Having said that, I love being in a relationship with my husband much more than being single. Note that I was very specific about my husband though. Previous relationships were usually guilt riddled and horrible short few weeks where I trampled all over some poor guy and also resented him for making me feel guilty that I wasn't nice or happy with him. I guess the main thing that bonds me to my husband is I am the most happy when I am with him. He makes me laugh and is a lot of fun. Plus I also deeply respect him. He indulges me terribly but he doesn't let me win. We met in our late teens so it has been a long time. Our relationship wouldn't work for everyone but it works for us.

I've had so much shit in past relationships that to be honest I'm not too bothered about being in one any more. Once you've dated a few guys it just isn't a big deal like it was when you were in your early teens.. Doesn't help that some guys can suddenly turn into bastards.. I was with my ex for a year when he suddenly called me and broke up with me on my birthday. People are never who you think they are. However, most of my best friends are guys. I'd rather have an uncomplicated friendship than a complicated relationship. |

To.be honest iv never trusted anyone because of how cruel I was treated in school, and I never had the courage to ask anyone but girls would ask me out and I'd say no I'm not interested, you all thinking * he's got a big ego saying that he's talking g shit * trust me I'm not making this up, iv never been one to be able to trust or try to get to know others because I'm afraid of getting hurt or abandoned, biscuit I understand, listen this is what you should do. First off don't try and go out with anyone, try and make some dude friends and and be friends with them for at least 6 months or a year and if a guy comes to you checking you out don't go out with him he's only after one thing, but try and asking one of them out first |

I have yet to meet someone I would want to get into a relationship with. I prefer women that are quiet, shy and caring, all of which is sadly something that I have yet to see except for in anime. So for dating and relationships, I guess you could say I'd rather wait for that special person than to convince myself that I'm okay with someone. So until then I don't care. Aim for the stars or fail trying. |

Too much energy, drama, and commitment. Life is more relaxing single. My last relationship almost resulted in a death and to be honest I just can't deal with people's mindbogglingly pointless shit anymore. It was two years ago with a Latina girl that I almost fell for, but then it escalated into unnecessarily stupid drama that ended up turning into a pattern of her saying: Even Days - "I love you, do you love me? Please stay with me forever. I need you. I can't live without you. You're the only one for me." Odd Days - "You're just like every other guy, you probably don't even care. I want to break it off with you, I'm tired of this. You're terrible, get out of my life. I'm done." All over the most frivolous reasons like "oh you talked to a girl I don't like I'm a jealous controlling Romance Nazi" or "you went to help orphans receive proper meals and shelter instead of going on a date with me? Clearly I'm not important enough!" Edit: And with that said, this is one of many examples as to why I prefer 2D personalities. |

I was riding single for a long time because I didn't want to deal with a relationship and I am a very picky guy. I have been seeing a girl now though I wouldn't quite put it at relationship status yet. It is a nice change of pace and I like her. I think everyone needs their time to be single, but ultimately we are meant to find a partner. A relationship is a commitment and like with any commitment there are ups and downs. Being single also has its ups and downs. I would be open-minded about getting into a relationship, but you don't have to be actively seeking one or trying to avoid it. If the right guy comes around, in your case, then go for it. The odds will tell you it will end bad, which is true, however it could also be a very positive experience. Life is about taking risks. |

I just recently got out of a decently long relationship (2 years). And the reason is simply because I lost interest in her. I started to not give a shit about going on dates, giving her presents, talking, sex... basically all the necessary things to maintain a relationship. She asked me whether I still liked her and quite frankly I didn't have it in my heart to say "yes" with confidence so we broke up. When relationships start, it seems so sparkly and fun but after a while, it gets tiring and bothersome. I guess I haven't reached the state where I desire to settle down. |

I put a great deal of importance on dating and relationships. Although all 6+ that I have engaged in failed, it's still one of the most important things to me. But I am a very lonely and terribly romantic person, which isn't normal. |

These past 4-5 years I haven't bothered with the dating scene. I'm not particularly popular with women anyway, so it's not like it was a chore to fight them off. I made the conscious decision to back off maybe twice, when things seemed like they were heading in that direction. I'm reluctant to date because I don't feel ready for the time commitment. I'm really bad at time management, so I know that it would eat into the time I spend on my hobbies. That doesn't sound too appealing at the moment, so I'm content with singledom. Of course, "if it happens, it happens," etc. I don't go out of my way to not socialize or anything like that. |
