Are there going to be dozens of single men and women in the future due to unrealistic expectations, perfectionism and giving up too soon?

Dating and relationships take effort and patience

Yes, I doubt it😐

No, not at all☺️

Perhaps, it will🤷‍♂️🤷🏼‍♀️

I think honestly there will be a drastic fall in the number of relationships since expectations from both parts are really too high. There’s no more will to be engaged and to make efforts to get a relationship working or to make things clear… a relationship has meaning when there’s effort and sacrifice from both parts, it’s not all due to the effort from only one part, there should be balance.
There’s preference for ghosting or for ignoring people, disrespecting others’ sentiments. This is the best way to make the others lose courage and motivation.


I think the path relationships have taken these days is really dangerous and deathful.

Relationships take effort and patience but you also have to know when you’re wasting your time, and when it’s time to walk away. Not everyone is worthy of the effort or time.

Agreed. Those are the types who are only giving signals, expect mind reading instead of communicating. Like a satellite. If it's in teenage years, then those traits are very common and normal.

But as an adult, you should communicate open and direct like I did 2 weeks ago when she was giving me clear signs of interest:

"Hey how is your day been going? I thought to have a coffee with you since I like your positive vibes".

So, she was just looking at me surprised and responded with:

"Sorry I can't do it because I am performing this job." Giving that response, it was clear for me that she had kinda different expectations and lost interest all of a sudden.

I mean what was the reason when you were extra friendly and bumping to me wherever I went. If i was wrong. Then she offered me a friendship which I denied because it would lead nowhere = waste of time
