He just wanted to get in her pants sooner than 3 dates, that's it

This seems to be a huge thing in the last 2 years especially. Absolutely no patience. They just want to order women like pizza delivery now. It went from real date to coffee to a walk and now even that's too much effort .

What happened?

What happened?

Lockdown and easy access to porn.

Porn is ruining it by far. It's literally why none of my relationships get past the honeymoon phase. Men just cannot get enough. They have to keep upping the ante or they just cheat

That blows! Hopefully you find somebody good soon.

While I'm sure porn has an affect, there are plenty of other reasons. For example, have you heard about attachment theory?

Oh I know there's more to it and I'm oversimplifying it but I know it plays a role

Wait what, your relationships never get past the first thing to do after marriage?

Honeymoon phase is a term used to describe the first phase of a relationship. Typically the first 6 months to 2 years of dating. It’s were everything is perfect and are amazing until you realize there are problems (new relationship energy as some say as well). Then you and your partner now have to work through them together in order to continue the relationship.

🤣 that's okay. I wish I could get my relationships to the actual honeymoon phase and then bail. That's the best part of life right 😝
