Is dating in real life as bad as social media likes to portray it?

Social media is fully of drama and people painting themselves in a more positive light then it really may be and a lot of exaggerating… A lot of peoples issues happen when they start getting attached to someone too quickly or when people get involved with darker personalities.

Dating is just dating there will be a people you date and never see again because it’s simply not meant to be. But some people just choose to waste a large portion of their lives with people they barely know

It can be both scary and it can also be exhilarating - sometimes the most intriguing aspect is "coming across someone from lust at first sight" or love at first sight. It's usually just lust but surely the body or the brain can't be always steering one wrong. Surely 😂🙃💖👀 stay safe stay clean, and know if you want players or want short term or even want long term lol 😜

Just as all folks need to look for themselves to be safe :) and make safe choices / determinations "he could be a sicko" or even "she could be a nutcase" lol 🥜🔩

No.
People enjoy attention so they glorify their experiences to give them meaning.


Dating is just one of those things people do do


You shouldn’t sweat it too much

After divorcing, I contacted women on match and enjoyed meeting most of them. I dated one for five years, and then married another.
