Dating Crisis: Women Are Burning Bridges for This Reason
How today’s dating culture pressurizes women into toxic relationships.
Not too long ago, Elisa teased me about my unflinching desire to remain single and unattached.
I reminded her that not too long ago, I had attempted online dating, which she was aware of, but I quit before I could go on the first date.
I didn’t want to sound pessimistic when she insisted I try again. She said I had not given myself the opportunity to get to know the guys who showed interest. And to be honest, I barely made it through ten chats if I’m not mistaken.
According to my friend and the dating analysis, people find love after dating for 134 days, while 32% get into serious relationships after 90 days.
That sounds absurd!
I tried to convince my friend that I’m not emotionally stable to put up with a serious relationship at the moment.
To which she replied, “that it is the same song I’ve been singing” since she meet me three years ago.
She thinks I’m self-sabotaging my dating chances, so she practically forced me to go on a date she set up with her brother-in-law.
