I gave online dating (eharmony) a try and I decided to stop using that option to meet people. Its a full time job and its too much to handle when I'm not getting responses back. I used eharmony for 2 months.
So I did the waiting game for men to approach me and that didn't work out.
Then I changed it to where I made the first move in contacting them. It was too much to handle when I wasn't getting any responses back or worst off is when the matches 'closed' all contact even before we even communicated in anyway.
I didn't think rejection would be so difficult and wouldn't impact me so much because its online dating, but after 2 months using eharmony, its taking too much of a toll on me waiting for them to contact me and when I initial communication with them.
I understand that dating either in person or online is still as difficult but over time I just need to take a break from all of it. Does this mean I'm not ready for dating in general? I just don't want to be emotionally tugged around. So with online dating having to wait for their responses and the anticipation is too stressful.
