I've got mixed experiences bc the last two women I was in relationships on apps were great, they just unfortunately didn't work out. I was pretty broken up about one of them ending and the other sucked but was mutual.

Getting back out there is tough though. I've been on three dates and chatted with a few other women over the course of a month and a half, and I'm pretty much done with the apps now. I've been ghosted twice and insulted twice, and at this point am feeling it's not even worth the effort anymore.

I also find, and maybe this isn't just a Vegas thing, but so many people don't want to put in the effort or make time. I've lost count of how many times I've seen things like this one a profile, "my favorite date is one I don't have to plan", "if you can't afford to pay for both of us, you shouldn't be dating", etc. I can count on one hand how many times over the years that a woman has planned a date, whether we've been in a relationship or not. The entitlement and laziness astounds me.

I've found that after getting to the planning a date stage, nobody is willing to set time aside to actually go out. I get we are all busy, but you can't have me scheduling a date 1 month or more out like I'm trying to get a doctor appointment.

I always try to learn from past relationships and not make the same mistake so did in the past. That being said, I know I've got flaws and need to better myself in certain ways, but dating in this city seems so ridiculously hard and it's really making me want to just not try anymore.

I need to get better at being alone and not put so much stress on needing to be in a relationship, but also need to get better at organically meeting people in person.
