These guys are cowards.
And they don’t deserve my strength and my vulnerability and my beauty.
So I think, I’m giving up.

I’m so tired of trying so hard with little success.
I’m so tired of wanting love so badly, and never even getting to the dating part.
It is a bottomless pit of rejection, of heartache, and of hookup culture that has no substance.
Honestly, I dont know how people do it.
How do you get through the rejection?
The thousands of people that you swipe yes for who are all mediocre.

How do you even date someone who is mediocre?
Werent we all supposed to get more mature by the time we turned 24?
I swear, guys were so much better when I was high school.
Recently I talked for three weeks straight to someone I had grown to like.
I didnt do anything wrong.
And everyone does it.
A couple months ago, I went on a date with a bartender I was smitten with.
We talked every day for a few months and our date went smashingly well.
I almost couldnt believe it.
And then out of the blue, he stopped talking to me.
And I kept wondering, what the heck did I do that scared him away?
Was it something I said?
Was it something I did or didnt do?
And then I realized that it was all him.
He was the asshole.
And I was just the girl that he played so expertly.
I could probably write a whole damn about each and every one of them.
But they dont even deserve that kind of attention.
Because these guys are cowards.
And they dont deserve my strength and my vulnerability and my beauty.
So I think, Im giving up.
Im so tired of trying so hard with little success.
Im so tired of wanting love so badly, and never even getting to the dating part.
Modern dating is a joke.
The way people toss others away.
The way we text for days on end and end it with silence.
The way we hook up with no strings attached.
It isnt even close.
And I deserve more.
And honestly, so do you.
