How are all the single ladies feeling about dating limbo?

Yes I know it is not hugely important in the grand scheme of things. But I am feeling a bit sad about it today.

I hadn't even been on a date with this guy yet (we were planning one) but like him a lot. We went to some virtual events at first and we have been talking most days since lockdown began. But I haven't replied for a few days now as I just feel - what is there to say? We had lots to say at first but it's hard when we aren't really living life. It's depressing and I am even considering just letting it go.

I'm 28, have taken a good break from dating over the past year and I was looking forward to starting again.

Just wondering how others are feeling/handing it if they were dating and are now in dating limbo?

I've been chatting to a few people on a dating site but I've ended up hiding my profile. I personally think lockdown could go on for some time.

On a positive note, lockdown has given me time to reflect on past relationships and understand what I'd do differently next time.

POF has some "live" streaming chat now. It looks a bit weird. Anyone tried it?

rocknroller65 what would you do differently?

Probably the main thing is to not rush into things if there's a next time 😊

First month was ok. Time to address some stuff like ending a short term relationship I wasnt 100% about. Longer term I find it quite depressing. Chatting to people is fun but not sure how long it can be sustained without meeting.
