Is it possible to never want to date again because a partner was so good or so bad?

[Cynicaldreamer]

Absolutely!!!
After my ass of an ex cheated on me, I lost all interest in dating, much less trusting the opposite gender outside of friendship. I didn't want to deal with that again or risk it.

While I did eventually get over that feeling, it took me a long time to heal and consider even wanting to date again.

As for a partner being too good? I seriously wouldn't know, lol. Can't say any guy was ever THAT good to me that dated or liked me. That's an interesting problem to have.

I know I never wanted to date seriously find Love again after my High School Love died, he was amazing I Loved with All My ❤. But here I am 30 years later finally in Love again with a wonderful Man and his young Son. We are getting married in 26 days.

That totally happens. I've meet many people (women especially) that don't want to date anymore after abusive relationship. Losing someone that was too perfect can cause that as well but seems less common. What I think is more common is that the person will never love their new partner as much as their last.

That is a horribly dramatic - and perhaps some think romantic - reaction, but I sincerely doubt that one partner could be that overwhelming.

Absolutely!!! I was single four years following a terrible breakup. He betrayed my trust like no other ever has and just lied about it. He made me feel being alone was the best way to avoid feeling such intense heartbreak and loss. 😢

Each person has a different way of making their partner feel good. It might not be sexually but they can learning your willing to teach. You shouldn't write other people off because of past experiences

Yes i believe it's possible , i been Single for 15/16 years
and not quite sure i ever want date , my cousins don't
split money for bills , so for now i am screwed unless
i go live in the High-rise where the bills are included
and the only thing i would need to pay is for rent,
cell bill , cable if i want. I live with cousins and
no one want to share expenses.

It is but.

I don't think someone should have that much power over me to change my life.

[Jamie05rhs]

Yes. Or if you've had your heart broken. It takes a while to get over something like that.
