Dating Report #1✨

tdlr: is poo because people are not on it to date date srsly i feel, just to past time and see where it goes.

Also its easy to just replace with another person anytime.

🌟🌟🌟

I was in a rs the past two years so havent been on dating apps much until recently, and after going through those roller coasters I open my eyes big big now hahah.

To heal, decided to start my solo adventures series ! - my guide to finding peace within myself currently.

Go to my profile to find things to do alone :3

Heres my verdict on the current experiences I had.

Disclaimer: data in the following is entirely real. Dont judge me ok i go in with journalist mindset to bring content to u guys :p

🌸🌸

× Interesting observations ×

- alot of ppl jobless rn

- Alot of breakups happened last year

- alot of us has childhood truama

- people work a lot and study v hard

- there are super talented people out there

- there are also super dumb people

- uni has a lot of horn** people

🌸🌸

Insights I concluded 🌟

Everyone is too busy or stressed out to date.

Most want a casual connection rather than actually get to know someone.

Only 2 guys actually asked me useful questions to get to know me.

It feels like they all want to be financially stable before choosing someone to love, or they just dont like me enough hahah.

-------

Number of guys I was/am actually interested in: 2? 1 that I am texting hahah but he doesnt want to date so we stayed as text buddies. The other is wip.

Summary:

Out of 24 people you talked to, you might only end up liking 2 and have it go somewhere.

Also adult dating is really different compared to dating in school. There's lesser time and more tired humans, that's why most of the first meets are just hangouts!

------

Hope this was entertaining to read HAHAH.

update: i fell after publishing this... see last slide for the Lols

-----

I did turn this into a series in the end and wrote my dating updates every month ⬇️

Compilation of everything

I have used the apps for about 6 years, talked to over 200, and met about 50. Totally agree, feels like people are not there to make real connections and the ones that do are rare and are sadly not my type😂

I was a wreck when the relationship ended, but to be honest, i’m so thankful that we broke up when we did. Maybe I didn’t know it at the time, call it “blind love” or whatsoever, but I thought I wasn’t ever going to get over this, or heal from the heartache. So on the verge of breaking up, I read u

Doom-scrolling hits different when you’re unemployed—it becomes survival, not distraction. 😓Is it too much to ask for a decent job in SG? A 4-day work week, manageable pay, a non-toxic, diverse work environment that doesn’t drain you. I was working as a permanent part-timer at an exhibitio

5 tips on dating in SG, this one is for the girls
1️⃣ “Busy” is not a love language. Everyone here is busy — work, gym, side hustles, friends. But when someone wants to, they’ll find five minutes to text you, or an hour to see you. Don’t romanticise “he’s just tired.” Effort will always fit into a packed schedule. 2️⃣ If he’s serious, you’ll

The most red-flag thing I did while dating 🚩
I was always a sucker for get-rich-quick. First the MLM schemes. I joined one. Then another. Then another. Every one a scam. Every dollar gone. Every single time. Then a guy across the table flipped it and sold me instead. Sales while you sleep. Sending emails. Affiliate marketing. He showed me
