Is it normal to just not have the desire to date once you’ve been hurt a lot and don’t trust people no more?

Somewhat. There’s been periods in my life where I haven’t really felt anything for anyone. But then I meet someone. Sometimes it’s a spark…. We may go on a date or two or three and it dies.

Other times I can fall for someone. But definitely periods. Nothing.

Yea, what the point of dating if it only get you hurt? might be better for you to stay single.

That's very normal. After my first break up ever it took me a bit more than two years to date again or ven have any desire o date someone.

Yeah. It hard to put effort in in if you don't care about the person, or all of your effort goes to waste.

I'm sure it can be. Give it time. Time will heal. You will know it when another good guy enters ur life

Yes, it happened to me. Ironically it was the day before I met my wife.

No, it means you need to learn how to pick better people

Hard to find these days

Nah, I would keep on trying. You'll go through several relationships before you settle down. Just takes patience and persistence.

No, you aren't emotionally healthy enough to process what happened so you cope
