After my long relationship (7+), i started dating again. Unfortunately i discovered that no one is looking for a meaningful connection or a serious conversation. Everyone wants to catered and be heard, no one wants to listen for just a second. I actively stopped myself from flirting/dating anymore, itβs just a complete waste of time π€·ββοΈim sorry to say many many many girls are VERY VERY superficial people.
Imo that's just people in general, most have a lot of issues they want to talk through and don't have people to talk with. After seeing about 9000 online profiles with "pamper me" or "over 6 ft or don't message" I get the feeling though :>
Try being a single dad on the dating scene. It's like a yellow star on my shoulder everywhere my profile goes. For fucks sake, even had single mom's tell me they don't date single dads. Legit had a woman tell me I'm cute, but having a kid is a dealbreaker due to her not wanting "baggage." Says the person resorting to online dating.
Thankfully, I found someone and been out of the game for the past 5ish years or so. I can only imagine how much more superficial it all is now.
"Of course I like children omg, why would you say that... I even donate to kids in Africa! It's just I don't like baggages in MY relationship, OMG is that too much to ask? You are not even that cute. " π«
