Online dating has opened a whole new world of possibilities to meet your person. But knowing how to navigate that world can create stress and anxiety. That’s especially true if you’re shy, introverted, or reeling from past relationship traumas.
If you’re considering getting online dating help, chances are you find yourself stuck repeating the same painful patterns in dating.
Maybe you want to try online dating, but feel totally lost about which app to use, what to say in your profile, and how to get from a swipe to a first date. So you just avoid it entirely.
You resolve to put yourself out there so you can find your person. You maybe even get a teensy bit excited.
You download the apps, set up profiles, swipe (slightly obsessively), aaaand…..wompwomp – you’re seriously underwhelmed by the matches and messages you receive.
Next, you go on several really-not-great dates. You commiserate with friends, trading your terrible date stories. It’s mildly amusing – but if you’re being honest, it’s mostly just sad.
Finally, someone you were messaging for weeks suddenly and inexplicably unmatches with you after you suggest meeting for a date. Or worse still, someone you’ve been dating for months avantajlД± baДџlantД± ghosts.
Your tentative hope about online dating turns to pure disappointment. You delete all the apps out of (completely understandable) frustration. You write off online dating altogether.
Days/weeks/months/years later, loneliness descends as you attend yet another slew of weddings and baby showers. You download the apps and the rollercoaster begins again.
Whether you’ve been too overwhelmed to try online dating or you’re burnt out from trying to connect with people through the apps, please know you’re not alone. Dating struggles impact most single people at some point.
Needing help is human. It doesn’t make you a failure; quite the opposite, in fact! It takes immense courage to acknowledge our difficulties and ask for help.
And here’s the good news: you don’t have to feel insecure, frustrated, or overwhelmed while searching for your person online.
Online dating help can support you to rise above your dating challenges and build the life you’re longing for, one with less loneliness and more intimacy.
