The Existential Hell of Dating: Why Ordering Appetizers Feels Like a Terrifying Referendum on Dying Alone

Published 3 months, 3 weeks ago
Description
Portrays dating as a deeply stressful and emotionally taxing process for those searching for a lasting partner. Rather than a light social activity, it is framed as a high-stakes pursuit tied to fears of loneliness and rejection. The emotional burden comes from the repeated cycle of hope and disappointment, the challenge of finding genuine compatibility, and the sense of helplessness when interest is not reciprocated. Each rejection can reinforce past wounds, while the ongoing process of evaluating others, being evaluated, and coping with repeated letdowns leads to significant exhaustion and strain.
