Why i realized dating apps aren't for me right now

Author

I downloaded a dating app this morning. I know it was meant to be a distraction. It made me feel awful. When the one I love is you. I deleted it 2 minutes later. I guess its better to heal. The thought of having to meet someone and go through the process again is overwhelming. This isn't what I want. 😟

i downloaded dating apps way too soon after my breakup too, and deleted them almost straight away because every profile just reminded me they weren't the person i wanted. 💔

i'm glad you listened to yourself instead of forcing it. i tried dating before i was ready, and it just made me miss my ex more. healing first made a huge difference for me.

if you downloaded it because you actually wanted to meet someone, or because you were hoping it would make the loneliness hurt a little less?

distract myself to try and make the pain less. 🤷‍♀️I can admit that.

when it is the right time, hopefully it will feel less overwhelming. but I understand being tired of going through the dating process again and having to be vulnerable with uncertainty
