discussion Anyone else tired from Dating/Relationship IRL?

[CandleRadio2]

I'm just burnt out from dating. Most of my relationships have been short-term, but it's been stressful and tiring to make it work. I did had a lot of happy moments, mostly in my mid-20s. I'm in my 30s now.

My last relationship was last year and she was very manipulative. Stalked my reddit page and she gets so irritated when she doesn't get her way. I'm glad that we broke up.

I just want to stay single and play my porn games to jack off.

How about you guys? Do you also feel exhausted from IRL Dating? And to the married people, how is your relationship doing?

If you get exhausted by IRL dating, it is a good reason to take a break from it. Single life is not bad.

Nothing wrong with being single. I know what I like and I don't have to explain myself to anyone. It's hard to find someone with the same kinks as me.

I got tinder fatigue after dating too many shallow people
but too shy to not use dating apps

Yeah, I'm taking a break from dating. Maybe next year or in a few years, I'll try again. It's not hard for me to find a woman to date. It's just hard to find a woman who matches the same energy.

I'm pretty shy and I've seen only a few good relationships compared to the meany bad ones.

No, there was no emotional burnout. There was a mismatch of characters, different interests, and addictions. I have been married since 2004, my wife and I were 24 years old. The acquaintance lasted about a year before marriage, we looked at each other for a long time, because we understood that passion is fleeting, a family is created not so much for fucking as for the birth and upbringing of a child. We have a daughter, she is 12 years old, she is a schoolgirl. It was the similarity of our interests that contributed to the stability of our marriage, ranging from literature and cinema to politics. What am I talking about? If you don't need to get to know each other for the sake of a fucking for 2-3 weeks, then look for someone close to you in spirit. Passion is not eternal, according to psychologists, it has not lived for more than 7 years (and this is at best), look for a friend. Only friendship will help you avoid all the underwater reefs that will inevitably come your way over the years of living together.

I'm going through my 2nd divorce. I have no interest in dating and I'm not sure I ever will again. Preferring being single right now.

From what now?

I gave up on it many years ago. Just not worth getting attached to people only for them to invariably hurt you.

 

[jacky76]

No problem on my side, I have a relatively submissive wife, the good life, still in negotiations for a second wife but it seems complicated and off to a bad start lol

 

[Sainto]

same. my last relationship was like 14-15 years ago. said never again. now i met someone and thought maybe i should give it another try. BIG mistake

 

[ThaBoooBThaBoooB's icon]

I gave up the hunt about 15 years ago. Have not regretted it since. I have so much free time for gooning it's ridiculous. XD

No, but for real, take a break and don't force it. Embrace and enjoy being single for a while. And, if you still want to give it a go later, try it again.

When I opted out, it was a bit of a struggle for 1-2 months, then I got used to it.
And I'm not saying never again. I'm just not going to go look for it. If I were to meet someone that would pique my interest, I'm open to it.
I also unfortunately have a picky taste. And I'm not settling, never worked previously, and I end up losing interest after a while.
So the odds that the so-called perfect woman would stumble into my lap are not in my favor. So I've kind of come to terms with the fact that I will prob be single for the rest of my life.

But hey, so far so good.

Being in a relationship isn't everything and i think you've discovered that. That's a good thing! women are attracted to men who have a mission in life, are sociable in their community, and have interesting life experiences. I'd say live your life by your rules, don't actively avoid a relationship but don't make it your goal either and maybe an authentic interaction and relationship will happen for you. Good luck out here!

Can't get tired of something you never done done!
