Is it time to give up on dating?

im about to turn 30 and my relationship ended a few days ago. im not sure if i ever want to go back to the dating game. like sure ill be open to going on dates if someone sets me up or if a friendship turns into something more. but me actively looking for a partner? im not sure if i have it in me anymore. pretty sure the men in my age group are also becoming less interested in dating and everyone is gonna be worn out and doesnt wanna put in the effort.

i stopped trying to figure out whether i'd ever want a relationship again. i just let myself be single without turning it into a decision about the rest of my life, and that took a LOT of pressure off.

im trying to just live in the moment without thinking so much. its just so difficult to do as an overthinker 😔

i feel this, especially the part about everyone being worn out. do you think you genuinely don't want to date anymore, or does dating just feel impossible to imagine while this breakup is still so fresh?

eeling this way after my last breakup, like the whole idea of dating again sounded exhausting before i even imagined actually doing it. i wanted a quiet life for a while where nobody needed anything from me romantically
