Certainly an interesting phenomenon. I've also deleted all my online dating apps. Just tired of the games. Ladies younger, games. Ladies my age, games, ladies a year or two older, games. Done for now. Taking a break.
Nah, take a month off. Hit the gym, and do some writing. Get in a good routine for the mornings and nighttime, cut social media, unug your TV and anything which doesn’t fill your cup.
Start stretching, reading more, creating, etc.
You just have to screen better and not be so eager to be in relationship. You seem sensitive and want to open; which is fine. But it’s your choosing process or needing acceptance from the woman which is a thorn in your side.
Like
@HankHill said. There’s plenty of good women out there. You just have to locate them.
But the good women will be drawn to value and that’s portrayed in how one talks, acts, where he goes, the words he says on dates. Like attracts like
I also remember another poster, recently, I think it was
@RangerMIke who said dating is simply just figuring out who’s not the right fit for you as quickly as possible to find the ones who are.
You found she wasn’t the best. Early on I might add but YOU failed to pull the plug or speak up and hold your frame, and now you saw what happens. All good though. It was a needed experience for your ultimate learning to navigate women and yourself in relations.
Dust yourself off. And in the new year get back to work. Use this as an experience to learn from. Taking a year off like your the Batman in the Dark Knight Rises to then go to battle in 2020 isn’t the most pragmatic and you’ll surely get rusty by not talking or learning seduction with women.
We get results in life by doing, failing, recalibrating, doing, failing, recalibrating, doing, failing, recalibrating; until we do and hit a success. Then we start over again.
There is no end point or arrival. It’s never ending.
Love this process for the good and bad.
Do more. And keep doing it better.
Accept this was your fault. Take that responsibility. It’s way better and more empowering than saying she’s crazy. Because at the end of the day, you chose it and our choices are reflections of how conscious we are.
