Dating is tedious... at least for some~ Like, think about those people who already went through 10 relationships. o.o And none of them worked out... If you're serious about finding "the one" then that situation is quite disastrous~

Trying to find the person you want to share your life with... is it worth all the struggle, or does that only make you appreciate it more in the end? Is there even an ideal person or only in your head? So, instead you "settle" for an inferior person? Tell me your thoughts. o_~

For once, I have no say in this matter

"The one"...nah. Dating is fine but break ups are tedious

I really bad at doing any kind of hosting or what not, appeasing people has never been my good side. I always felt I somehow had to appease the girl I'm dating, which is partially true I suppose, most dates are meant to be 50/50 nowadays chivalry works both ways. I however won't be annoyed with the time or money I'm spending, its just whether or not shes actually enjoying herself.

Whenever somebody says they're fine I don't normally believe them. For example my ex-girlfriend once kept insisting on watching me play prototype because it was fun to watch, after telling her if she wanted to go out or have a go on it. I somehow felt really guilty and decided to go and watch a movie, afterward she said she had to go anyway so I went to watch with my friends instead.

My friend says I'm just trying to hard, I should just act normal, sometimes I think my normal self is too boring lol.

lawl my friend been through 4 relationship in his Highschool and all ended up with no fruit. Funny thing i'm the opposite been through 1 and i had it for love, SCREW YOU LOVE. The irony in that is i do enjoy more of the companionship of female being around rather then guys but my friend he isn't like that... though he still keep falling over and over for some many people.

It's going to sound cliche, but if it's the right person, it won't feel/be tedious at all.

Dating rarely felt tedious to me, and I did my best not to be a high-maintenance date (or girlfriend or wife). I generally didn't ask for anything except to be together every so often and made sure that neither of us felt like we didn't have enough space to do things with others if desired. You'd have to ask my dates/bfs/husband whether or not I accomplished that. =)

If it does feel tedious, then there's something not right with the relationship - someone's too clingy, or not understanding of a situation, or w/e.

From a bumper sticker I like:
"If you're gonna ride my ass, at least pull my hair."

I'm one of those that marked that it doesn't interest me - any longer.

I liked it when I was 'new' - more than looking for a relationship, I was just interested in meeting new people. It was fun.

Then I got serious, had my heart broken and it wasn't fun anymore. Same old, same old.

You can never know beforehand how a relationship is going to work out. But a failed relationship made me regret all the time I 'wasted' because of it. I could have spent that time enjoying so many other things I've always wanted to do and what-not.

I plan to leave it all up to 'fate' from now on. When you actively put an effort in something and it turns foul, I guess that's what happens?

I guess it is somewhat tedious sometimes, i never thought about finding someone special, always enter relationships thinking about the end no matter how much i like the girl and never making plans for the future ahead of a month, i dont believe in lasting relationships.

Yes, dating is tedious, but in the end it's worth it. Though, I enjoy being single. I don't have to worry about having to talk to that person, or worry about their opinion of me. I'll only have to think about myself and my own future instead of the future of "us". It feel free.

But being in a relationship—the concept of having someone care for you and make you feel special, it's something that makes the trouble worth it.

Yes, dating is tedious. Trying to find a decent boyfriend I'm not sure if I'm just picky about who I'll date or if a lot of men aren't that great .... Or least the ones I'm meeting aren't ....
Thing is I tend to like any guy I meet, but to want to go out with him. That's something different. I don't even think my standards are that complicated. Very simple, and apparently hard to meet.

I don't know if dating is tedious cause I've never gone out with someone before.
Maybe it's not in my interest as of now to date the opposite sex. But i feel that it would be bothersome because your time is not anymore in your hands.

Never dated anyone. I'm not much interested and anyway, it wouldn't fit my schedule. I'm not saying I'm disinterested in having a relationship. It's just that I'm not interested in dating per se. Makes sense? Good, then I shall not elaborate.

As someone who used to go out and date frequently... I say it's more expensive than tedious.

I like paying for my own, and usually for my dates too, so I don't feel like I owe them if I decided I don't like the guy - I don't feel guilty for not going out on a second or third time. I also like to picking the place/activity, so I feel like I should pay for it. I may have expensive tastes, but I pay for it myself
If the guy gets offended by me paying, that's a huge red flag - won't go out with him anymore and I move on. It's fun and exciting, not really tedious, imo.

Being in a long-term relationship is different. It can get annoying at times, but it's worth it.

As for me, I take advantage of other people without a second thought. Why should I pay if someone else is glad to pay for me? Not that I don't pay for what is due or treat anyone to anything, I do. But I'm much more inclined to see it as a red flag when a man let's his date pay. I find women who insist on paying to be very dated. It's like an 80's or 90's thing. Kind of like some inferiority complex.
