I'm sure this has nothing to do with everyone being told to run their life as though they are a brand
Making an online dating profile literally felt like commodifying and marketing myself. I just stopped it felt so gross
I think the dating apps are probably way worse for our mental health than tik tok or facebook or any of that. I know they've sent me spiraling.
I wonder if this is different for women. I know several who use Tinder as a self-esteem booster, just opening the app with no intention of pursuing anyone and reveling in the attention.
If you derive your personal self worth by the literal skin-deep appraisal of internet strangers then you are mentally unwell.
That's not a "self-esteem booster" that's you taking a hit of a "virtual drug" because you can't produce your own self-esteem. You literally get high from it and then come crashing back down.
I was trapped in it once.
