So after a year of breaking up with my ex [who i see at work everyday] I started to date.
I never dated before, I am quiet ugly and I dont know how to talk to girls much.
I have managed to sleep with 3 girls in the past half-year.
However each interaction with a girl who I dont feel anything for, or I dont want to date [even if we click] feels like is ripping pieces of my soul.
Everytime I sleep with a girl its like loosing myself [I never lie to the girls, they know I dont "Want to date" ]
Should I stop dating? After every date I feel worse and worse, even if the girls want to meet up again.
Dating sucks if you're generally someone who wants a genuine connection/relationship for exactly the reasons you outlined. Can't even tell you the damage I've done to myself over the year from the whole process, but unfortunately, its a necessary if you're that person who needs connection because you go psychotic in the lonely in-between periods from meaningful relationship to meaningful relationship.
You do feel less over time. I can promise you that. It makes things a lot easier in terms of dating, but a lot harder to actually love in the way you probably want to.

I guess this is exactly what I feel. I am single for the first time since I was 16 [am 23] and I was planning a life with my ex, building a new kitchen etc.
Since this all felt to shit all the dates feel like "lacking" . It never leads to anything [dont mean sex, starting to not care about that]
I just cant imagine even dating any of the girls, let alone start a life.
