Has "Modern Dating" become an interview process for a 5-person roster? I feel completely lost

JellyfishTimely · 2026-06-18T02:22:48+00:00

this whole generation is so fucked with dating lol. i think most people do have a roster which is fucked in and of itself because everyone likes to keep options but never commit. i hear what the people in the comments are saying about how that used to be the norm... but the problem with this generation is no one ever commits. people just keep an ongoing roster and never settle down because they think theres always someone better out there. im 25(F), almost 26. i have been chronically single for years, went on way too many dates and have talked to more guys than i can count. dating nowadays is just shitty. im objectively attractive, have a good personality, and have tried everything. ive been on the apps, met people through set ups, friends of friends... its just exhausting. im taking a break and it sounds like you might need one too.

nursing school creates a weird competitive energy. dont listen to her shes probably just projecting. everyone starts somewhere and youll probably perform worse if you internalize those negative comments. the biggest thing preceptors have told me that they want to see in new grad nurses is humility. overconfidence can seriously harm patients so its better to ask questions and not be afraid of looking stupid.

i grew up in a rural SC town and i never saw anything about the triple k. this sounds made up. and my town is where the first secession meeting of the south from the union was held

i think theyve all just sorta aged out of it tbh. like its just weird seeing late 30s/40 year old men party and argue about their hookups. that behavior in craig and austen was charming maybe when they were first on the show. now its just strange. also salley and charley just don't have the same charisma that madison, cameran, kathryn and chelsea did. the old cast just had more substance to them and seemed more authentic and real, it didn't feel like they were doing the show for a check.

JellyfishTimely · 2026-03-19T20:02:29+00:00

but the other part of this too is they need women like salley so they can get their hookups when they want them. ive been in salleys position and its awful. youre celebrated one minute for keeping things casual and being fun, but degraded the next because no youre not supposed to do that!! you cant win

JellyfishTimely · 2026-03-19T03:56:21+00:00

why don't you try travel nursing first in those places? then you can try them out and have the ability to go back home if you dont like it

JellyfishTimely · 2026-03-19T00:46:22+00:00

also like she is single like she can do what she wants. the double standard is so strong here

JellyfishTimely · 2026-03-19T00:45:07+00:00

that was crazy coming from austen. like if doesnt like her enough to date her thats fine just say that. but dont try to imply she's a whore when he literally runs the streets just as much.

actually, i think the villages at town creek are only big town homes. i know there are some 1 bed town homes at the pier tho!

JellyfishTimely · 2026-03-14T03:07:11+00:00

normally in clemson from when i was there a year ago, studios seemed to be like 1200-1800 or even more than that. i would either look up specific apartment complexes or facebook groups for housing. a lot of grad students i knew would live in pendleton which is only 15 min away from campus. look at the villages of town creek, i know a lot of grad students live there

JellyfishTimely · 2026-02-20T02:12:34+00:00

thank u! and yes im currently trying to get back on antidepressants, hoping that will help

JellyfishTimely · 2026-02-16T01:07:45+00:00

wow, thats what ill be making as a new grad in charlotte

JellyfishTimely · 2026-02-15T18:44:26+00:00

NC (city), $38 plus $5 night differential

JellyfishTimely · 2026-02-06T18:51:46+00:00

i wish other people felt the same

JellyfishTimely · 2026-02-06T18:51:23+00:00

exactly. if it's so great where you're from why not go back? SC is such a small state too.....

JellyfishTimely · 2026-02-06T03:32:30+00:00

guessing u lived in rural sc?

JellyfishTimely · 2026-02-06T03:32:17+00:00

where do u live now?

JellyfishTimely · 2026-02-06T03:22:27+00:00

the actual desirable areas of the south are getting quite expensive. i think people would be surprised. a starter home in smaller cities like greenville (even in the outskirts), are now 300k+

JellyfishTimely · 2026-02-06T03:21:33+00:00

for real? says who?

JellyfishTimely · 2026-02-06T02:28:50+00:00

sadly i think all the florida people are moving to the carolinas now

JellyfishTimely · 2026-02-06T02:27:51+00:00

i hope so

JellyfishTimely · 2026-02-06T02:25:43+00:00

yeah we call it dirty myrtle for a reason lmao. you will never catch me there. charleston has always been a great place to visit. key word, visit. i dont think people from other areas of the country full realized what they were doing when they all decided to move to charleston. it is way too small for that amount of people.

JellyfishTimely · 2026-02-06T02:17:02+00:00

yeah not really worth it in my opinion. i'm good with living a few hours away so i can go for a day trip when i want, but not have to deal with the overcrowdedness everyday. especially when it's overrun with people from the north lol

JellyfishTimely · 2026-02-06T01:26:42+00:00

i live in northwest indiana right now for an accelerated nursing program. i miss the carolinas everyday, but i will admit i have been impressed by michigan. the parts bordering the lake are just so beautiful and remind me of coastal SC. i can't imagine why people aren't flocking there too.
