Question

I've been online dating for a few months now and I'm getting so frustrated my sister is always on my case about it too she says I'm being too picky but honestly I just don't want to get hurt again I went on a date with this guy last week and he seemed nice at first but then he started talking about his ex and how she was crazy and I'm like okay thats a major red flag right? he also didnt want to meet in public which was weird I dont know maybe I'm just being paranoid but it feels like every guy I meet is either creepy or totally uninteresting my mom is all like just be patient and you'll find someone but its hard when it feels like everyone is weird or not interested and I'm just sitting here waiting for something to happen I guess what I'm asking is are these things really red flags or am I just being too sensitive I dont know what to do anymore I'm just so done with all of this

Hana Kim · Answer

so I've been in your shoes before, online dating can be super overwhelming my sister was also on my case about being too picky but honestly I just didn't want to get hurt again I started making a list of my non-negotiables & it really helped me stay focused on what I'm looking for in a partner, like trust & respect, if someone doesn't check those boxes I'm just not interested, I know it sounds simple but it's worked for me so far, I've been on some pretty bad dates but at least I knew what I was getting into, my sister still gives me a hard time but I'm just trying to stay positive & keep putting myself out there, I guess what I'm saying is don't settle for someone who doesn't make you happy, keep looking, you'll find someone who does, eventually
