It's time to detox from toxic dating cycles. I really can't deal with the dating app culture anymore, it just leaves me feeling so empty and worthless. An endless cycle of situationships, half-getting to know someone, silently stalking them on social media for years just to avoid the feeling that you'll never find love - I am sick of it. There is so much more I want to do with my time and energy and so much that I've wasted on the idea of "happily ever after". Time to take it off the pedestal and call out the apps for how much they seem to be profiting off of our insecurities. I need a time out in 2025.
