Do you enjoy dating?

[Volcaholic]

How do you decide if dating is for you or not? Not keen on terms 'giving up' or 'never' but i can honestly say i detest dating with a passion.

Id like a relationship in theory but when i see what is on offer i think id rather shove my head in a deep fat fryer😂

I think life is too short doing things you don't enjoy and for me that is dating.

What does a relationship honestly bring to your life? Sweet sod all in my opinion. Nothing but grief, stress and disappointment.

All i know is i am happier and more myself when i am single. I am not compromising for the sake of being in a shitty mediocre relationship.

As Catherine Tates Nan would say 'What a fucking load of old shit' 😂🤣

I absolutely had the time of my life when I last dated. I was mid 30s, newly free from a long, dreadful marriage. It was back when Guardian Soulmates existed and there was lots of activity on line. The dates were fun and safe and I met so many nice men. I think the thing is that although I knew what I wanted I was also open to having first dates with lots of people (2nd dates were very rare). Having said that, if I was single now, 20 years later, I'm sure I would feel differently. How old are you?

@dudsville 42. What annoys is the entitlement of some men on these apps. I mean do they really think a 42 is going to be interester in a 60 year old? Too big an age gap for me anyway.

Bypass them, they aren't worth a second thought!
