Who else is feeling burnout? We are burnout, stressed and tired as women...and now have to spend time on dating apps? Someone who is an accountant told me that on average, she spends about 8 hours a week on dating apps to get a date. Who has 8 hours a week for that? Who got time for that! Not me haha!

Here are some tips on how to deal with burnout from dating apps

1) Consider taking a break from dating apps and do something fun. It may be hanging out with your girlfriends or going on vacation.

2) Instead of dating apps, look for in real life opportunities. Meetup.com was a great place that I met my husband. You can find common interest and hobby groups to meet people of similar interests.

3) Another idea is doing speed dating or mixers. These are great because you can meet in person and see if you have chemistry right away.

4) Finally, if you don't have time, but have a very demanding job, a reputable matchmaker may be helpful for you as they vet the person for you and give you feedback on what you can improve on to increase your chances.

5) Finally, practice the abundance mindset and mindfulness (being present in the moment) when it comes to dating. For example, a good friend's sister met her husband at a corner of Whole Foods pasta section because she could not reach it. Sometimes, opportunities are just in front of your eyes but you are too fixated on your phone. Another example, another person I know met their husband through jogging in central park, the husband saw her and jogged another round so he can speak to her and ask her out on a date.

Opportunities are everywhere, keep an open eye and abundant mindset.

Being able to be open to opportunities and willing to explore what is out there besides dating apps can be lonely and difficult. If you are tired and burnout, relationship counseling can help. Contact me and let’s chat.
