It’s only difficult because you realize how nice and peaceful it is to be alone and you don’t want to give that up 😆
Very true 🤣
F, early 30s. What I’ve realized is I’ve become a little set in my ways the longer I’m single. I don’t have to worry about someone else, take care of an immature man child, or deal with someone with divorcee baggage.
Obviously, I’m being a bit dramatic. I will say dating gets more challenging if you maintain standards. At some point, you look around you and realize most people have kids and they’ve exited your life so you make new friends. I took for granted how many people were single in my 20s and not thinking strategically about my ‘dating game plan’. That said, don’t want kids so a bit different.
I constantly reflect if my life would have been better if I had “settled” in my 20’s. Answer is no! 30’s are my worst in dating experience. Every guy I meet has commitment issues! I believe my “one” is hit by a bus and stuck in hopes he will find me soon..
Good news is that “the one” does not exist. There are however many people you’re compatible with. All will require work and compromises
When you date you learn more about yourself and what you want. Set boundaries and date in your 20s. I wish I dated more in my twenties, I was very career focused, married the first long term relationship and was divorced in less than 3yrs with 2 kids. I learned a lot more about myself and also what men want in my last two relationships. If I dated well earlier I think I would have done a better job choosing my husband.
I didn’t grow up being taught how to date or seeing any happy marriages. I learned men want respect, support and affection. I learned how to be a safe space and be less critical, I learned not to worry so much. I learned I have zero tolerance for cheating and lying and selfish people. I learned I can forgive and still leave, I learned to discern when a man is intentional vs just acting to get something. I learned love is a choice we make daily and the list goes on.
depends on if you are male or female.
Just enjoy the life. Forget about “meeting the one…”
