To put it in as trite few words as I can, these are the lessons I learned in this breakup:
⏳ All good things must come to an end
🎣 There are plenty of fish in the sea
📵 Never call your ex
❤️🩹 And yes, you will love again (it’s inevitable)

Cutest date I planned, hot girl, we’re both interested, and I find out just before we talk schedules she lives in a DIFFERENT CITY. FUCK HINGE

It’s funny though that honestly I’d worry more about this than rosterism. Bc I know a girl is capable of settling down for something serious, but the way these apps are made it’s so easy just to get on and scrollscrollscroll. It’s as instinctual as any other social media and promises way more.
I’ve met some beautiful spirits on this app don’t get me wrong. I just don’t know if I could genuinely trust a real romantic connection made on there without worrying whether or not they go back to the dopamine mines that are Dating Apps.

Went on a date today that could probably fix me if I don’t fuck it up. She’s so gorgeous, adorable, likes the same kinda music as me, wants to do karaoke. I’m lwk in love.

Okaaayyy sooooo I had a whole thing happen with my grandmother and a new job then she says this thing about how I have empathy and it’s a superpower and incredible for this job and ok ok I’m gonna I think live more in line with that when it comes to girls now. I FEEL BAD.

Honestly though I’m thinking my dating app arc might be coming to a close soon though. I got THE best friend out of it on the first date and pretty much nothing else since 😭 I’ll just see whatever else I’ve started through and if nothing comes of it then I’m washing my hands.

It wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be but now I’ve officially broken things off with the girl I’ve been seeing since like October. We’ve agreed to stay friends so that’s nice :)

I have discovered the key. Ethical non-monogamy. It’s like finding the holy grail. This is where the hookups are at.

This all started because I broke up. I made the choice from that day to live my life truthfully. I’ve felt the alternative in those last painful months — living in silent, ignored pain and curiosity, the self delusion; and I felt the absence in the months after — wallowing alone in the same routine.

I think it’s important to reclaim some forms of intimacy after a breakup, that’s what rebounds are for 🏀 I guess I just didn’t realize what I was doing, much less why. It still is using people, but we’re all in the same shit situation more or less once or twice. Users gonna use. Just be honest.

Pathetic, desperate, clingy piece of shit I am. She was so different from the other girls I talked to. I just wanted to make sure we were speaking, or that we’d see each other. It felt like flying through the sky with nothing beneath my feet. No safety, no guarantee, and the ground hurtling closer.

Yup I’m getting ghosted. That’s a little rude but I deserve it I think 😭

I’m aware this is tmi, and I try to loosely stay away from that here, but ever since I’ve been going on dates and stuff j***ing *ff makes me feel like such a loser, like even just the idea of it. It’s a weird psychological thing I didn’t care about before but it ultimately wastes less time ig.

So I lied and asked her out again this morning. I’ll wait all day if I have to. It feels like a bad choice but why not give it one last try?
Ultimately though I’ll give it one more day. I took one picture of us together on the date and afterwards I’d sent it to her over text. She still has yet to respond or even react to it sooo yeah. If I can’t take a reply I’ll at least take the hint 👍

So I’ve had some time to stew on it all over the past few days and otw home from work it really came to me. I don’t think I’m gonna keep going with this girl the other girl set me up with. I just can’t get comfortable around her! I’d love her as a friend but I can’t really do all this before then.

I did the thing where u romanticize the HELL out of someone before u rly get to know them. Now I’ve gone on the worst suited date with someone I didn’t know until now was super independent solo style.

I am calm. Whatever happens happens. Don’t overthink it. If it was meant to be it was meant to be, if not it’s ok.

The girl I matched with on Hinge, the one who I went on a double date with, she attracts losers pretty much exclusively. I’m sure her roommate (the one I’m trying to date) has noticed this. I have almost nothing to offer except a lot of (maybe misplaced) dedication and a chance to start fresh.

So talking a bit with a friend has shown me this is def a self esteem issue. But rly it feels more like an isolated thing around her specifically. She has all these breathtaking traits and stories and I have my share too tbh, but none of mine feel really transferable in any meaningful ways.

I think the important thing to keep in mind on a date is you’re in for the discovery, not the destination. If what I value about myself and this girl is the sense of adventure, I shouldn’t be looking to retread old ground. Instead, I should be seeking out experiences that I want to do together.

How tf do I ask this girl on a date to a state park (she’s super outdoorsy) and she says she’s gonna go there tomorrow BROOOO I’m trying to offer what little I can as a cool local, ur BITING MY FLOWWW. I’m not mad but I already feel like I don’t have enough to offer like damn 😭

It may be true I just need a hobby or something just to really take me away from being constantly enamored with 1 other person. D&D and creative pursuits aren’t quiiiitee enough, maybe the gym will help, but also maybe it should be something less solitary, more social (maybe career aligned?)
But deep down I need to yell at myself that SHE IS JUST A PERSON! I’d freak her out putting her on a pedestal! She can inspire me all she wants or whatever but I just need to be myself, let her be herself, try hanging out occasionally, and enjoy — right? Then what?
