The 17 Times You've Been Tempted To Give Up On Dating
The dating game isn't easy. And sometimes it can become so exhausting you are ready to throw in the towel. Say 'goodbye' to dinners and dancing and bring on the sweatpants, the Netflix binges and maybe purchase a cat or five? Here are the 17 times that we have all thought 'maybe this dating thing just isn't for me'.
#1 When your latest s*xual encounters have been so cringeworthy that you are considering celibacy.
#2 When you keep meeting dudes who check all the boxes (car, house, good job, British accent) and you just aren't attracted to them.
#3 The only dudes you find attractive are hiding a secret, like they live with their parents or they have a criminal record.
#4 Your mom is always trying to set you up with people. Even when you go out for coffee.
#5 You are passively watching all of your friends settle into fairytale relationships on social media.
#6 When you open your inbox on your online dating site and half of the messages contain male nudes. Yikes!
#7 You're just too tired to answer the typical routine of first date questions.
#8 When you totally fall for that guy across the bar and they end up coming over to hit on your friend.
#9 When the celeb couple you idealize can't even make it work and end up calling it quits. Love is dead!
#10 When you become perfectly satisfied with your, erm, intimate toys.

#11 You're so done with 3:00 am texts from some d-bag looking to Netflix and Chill.
#12 When you realize your best girlfriends are really your soulmates and you don't need men.
#13 When you have to get up for a date but you can't get your butt out of bed. Can't he just come over and cuddle you?
#14 When people repeat the same dating advice as if it's new. Ugh.
#15 When you date someone who just got out of a huge relationship and you feel like you're doing something wrong. He still has her in all his profile pictures and yesterday he called you by her name.
#16 When you have the world's best date and he never calls you again.
#17 When you start working out for your own personal benefit and not to appeal to potential boyfriends.
Tag someone who can relate to these struggles! What are your favourite and least favourite things about being single?
