I’ve been single for 5 years now, and not really in any rush to “settle down” or “find the one”, but I’ve been on a numerous dates, have dated several people for a month of two, but it always seem to fall apart one way or another.

I’m not ugly, and think I’m pretty fun to be around/positive, funny, maybe a bit eccentric, but nothing too bad by any means.

I have no idea why I struggle with dating and maintaining relationships, so I wanted to know if there was any way how I can see what it’s like dating me from the opposite perspective?

    How do you get dates because it can be a big factor. My last several relationships have been with people I’ve met in my day to day despite using dating apps to meet people during that duration. Honestly beyond hookups I’d almost suggest staying clear of them. Especially since people are particularly picky on these dating apps and a lot of it is quantity over quality. Meeting people who share similar hobbies/interests to you is the ideal way imo.

      I wish I could take that advice (despite telling others the same thing).

      I met my girlfriend through Tinder. We’re together 8 years now and have a lovely little girl of 18 months.
