Search Results: short break

I will say I’m unlucky, I don’t think dating is this hard for the average person. In fact, most people have it easy as long as they’re attractive. Since I’ve been on dating apps on and off for years, that’s the only way I’ve met people but I just never catch a break. The one time I saw someone short term, it felt like settling because no one else gave me attention & he wasn’t physically attractive to me but treated me okay. I always get pursued by the ones I don’t want, if they’re attractive they’re dicks or there’s no connection OR if they’re good looking but decent personality they’re too short for me.

Sometimes the guys on dating apps message and we speak for a little while, but things fizzle out. Out of no where in some cases, they reach out again and come across as unstable or a total asshole wanting to rub something in my face. Look at last post, is this standard of dating apps or am I unlucky?

I really don’t have a desire to be social and meet people in person, it’s so hard to make friends. I’ve never met someone through a friend like most have, I don’t know if even having a dating app profile is worth it. I’ve even tried bumble but it didn’t change my luck, I wanted to be more in control.

I'll keep it short
I had a best friend in my pre university.
I broke friendship with her because she backstabbed me and i trusted her a lot. (4yrs ago)
Recently her dad died because of cancer. I was kinda traumatized. I called her up and talked to her (for 1st time in 4-5 years) she said "we will meet soon-ish"
She still didn't accept my insta request
I want to talk to her but dunno if i should.

TL; DR: Typical with dating apps or just bad luck in love?
