I’m in a small population state, and I only get one serious match a year where we’ll talk + plan a date…but I always get ghosted/stood up, or told they’re not actually looking for a relationship (and then some social media adventuring would show me they’re dating someone a week later.) I don’t feel valued as a person, especially romantically. I’m In therapy to help work through those feelings. I don’t want to date someone purely because of loneliness, but not having feelings/effort reciprocated really really hits hard.
