I want to say that I'm really sorry you're feeling this way. It's completely natural to feel confused and disheartened when it seems like everyone around you is looking for something different from what you want. You're not alone in feeling this way; many people in our generation struggle with the same issues. It's tough when the culture around us seems to prioritize casual encounters over meaningful connections.
I can relate to how you were okay with casual relationships for a time, but then started feeling empty. It's a common experience to realize that something that once seemed fun and fulfilling no longer meets your deeper emotional needs. It takes a lot of courage to acknowledge that and start looking for something more serious. It's disheartening when the people you meet don't seem to be on the same page. It's important to remember that there's nothing wrong with you for wanting a serious relationship. Wanting love and commitment is a natural and healthy desire. It's tough when you feel like you're not finding men who want the same thing. But that doesn't mean there aren't men out there who are looking for the same level of commitment and emotional connection you are.
It's easy to start questioning yourself when you keep encountering the same patterns. You might wonder if true love even exists or if it's something you can ever find. But it's important to hold on to hope. True love is real, and there are people out there who want the same deep, meaningful connections that you do. It can be really hard to break away from the casual hookup culture that's so prevalent today. But it's worth it to stay true to yourself and what you really want. You deserve to be with someone who values you for who you are and wants to build a life with you. It might take time to find that person, but they're out there.
I understand your confusion. It’s really hard when you’re searching for something genuine. Casual relationships can leave a void. You’re brave for recognizing what you want. It’s not easy to move from casual to serious. True love does exist. I believe in it because of my husband. But it can be hard to find. The search can be frustrating. Your feelings are completely valid. It’s okay to want something more. Don’t lose hope. There are people who want serious relationships. Sometimes it takes time to find them. Your desire for deeper connections is meaningful. It’s okay to feel empty sometimes. It’s part of the journey.
i'm sorry that you're feeling this way. wanting a meaningful connection is natural and valid. it's tough when it feels like the people around you aren't looking for the same thing. men these days don’t really want that serious connections and that sucks! but i’m sure if you will continue looking, you’ll find your person! it will take time (and i can’t tell you how much time it’ll take) and effort. but i’m sure you’ll find someone!
Oh, the Gen Z dating jungle! 🌴 It’s like navigating through a maze with blindfolds on. You’re totally right, it feels like everyone’s just looking for the next hookup. You’re not alone in this quest for something real. True love is like finding a unicorn sometimes. 🦄 But hey, here’s the thing: you’re evolving, wanting more, and that’s beautiful. 🌸 Maybe it’s time to be your own love story’s hero. Keep looking for someone who’s on the same page. And remember, you’re a gem. If someone can’t see that, it’s their loss.
The right person will come, and until then, keep shining and being your fabulous self. 🌟 Your unicorn is out there somewhere, probably just as lost in the maze. 😉
Hey, I get it. Navigating relationships in today's world can be incredibly confusing and disheartening. I've been there, questioning whether true love even exists or if it's just a myth. It's okay to feel confused and to question things. First off, it's important to understand that wanting something serious and meaningful is valid. You're not wrong for wanting a deeper connection. Casual relationships can leave you feeling empty if that's not what you're truly seeking. It's a sign of growth that you're recognizing this and seeking something more. The right person will come along, but it might take some time and patience. It's also crucial to set boundaries and communicate your desires clearly. Let potential partners know what you're looking for from the start. It might scare some people away, but it will also attract those who are on the same wavelength.
self-love and self-respect are key. focus on building a strong relationship with yourself first. when you're confident in who you are and what you want, it becomes easier to attract the right kind of people. It's also important to remember that not everyone is the same. there are people out there who are looking for the same things you are. It might take some time to find them, but they're out there. don't lose hope. true love is worth the wait, and it's okay to hold out for something real. take care of yourself, and trust that the right person will come along when the time is right
Being confused about relationships in this generation is understandable. But let's be real here. You can't expect to find something serious if you're only looking in places that promote casual relationships. I used to think the same way, that true love didn't exist anymore. But then i realized I was looking in all the wrong places. If you want something serious, you have to surround yourself with people who want the same thing. I stopped going to bars and clubs and started joining groups and activities that aligned with my interests. That's where i met people who were looking for more than just a hookup. It's not easy, and it takes time, but it's worth it. Don't give up on the idea of true love just because you haven't found it yet
Don't give up on the idea of true love! It's still out there, even if it feels elusive right now. Sometimes, the best relationships come when you least expect them. Keep an open heart and mind, and try to be patient. You might want to explore different avenues to meet people, like through mutual friends, hobbies, or even online communities that focus on serious relationships. It's not about the quantity of dates but the quality. Just one meaningful connection can change everything.
A lot of the times the path to true love requires us to look inward first. Reflect on what you truly want and what you're willing to give in a relationship. The energy we put out often attracts similar energy back to us. Focus on being the best version of yourself, and trust that the universe will bring the right person into your life at the right time. It’s not about changing who you are but about being patient and having faith in the process. Love is a journey, not a destination.
I understand your frustration with the current dating culture. It's true that many people seem to prioritize casual relationships over serious commitments. But know that not everyone shares the same values or desires. It might be helpful to look for potential partners in places where people with similar values congregate, not in clubs or places like clubs. Also, communication is key, it’s really and I mean really important. Be upfront about your intentions and desires. It might not always yield immediate results, but it can help filter out those who aren't on the same page.
Hi,
As we age, we start getting matured and understanding what we like, what do you want, what makes you tick and we started desiring for a more stable life. In this process you also start finding your strength and weakness, things that makes you feel alive, happy.
Answer these questions in a journal to understand before you give up on the idea of true love:
What is true love according to you?
how do you know you have found it?
what are you looking for?
Sometimes i think the idea and the emphasis of finding a true love is being put into our head so we feel lost, sad when we don't find it, we feel we are deprived of happiness when we don't get it. Our thinking is fine tuned from very early age that true love can only complete us. But here i want to understand does only true love can give you the happiness or complete you. Can't you complete yourself by being happy with yourself, by doing things which makes you lively, by embracing and nurturing you. If you love yourself then no one can break you or hurt your feelings in the future. You are so focused in finding true love that you feel so low. You need to start working on yourself to be self fulfilled. Appreciate what you are doing, applaud your sense of maturity of understanding what you need now remaining everything else will come in slowly.
