Dealing with dating anxiety isn’t a walk in the park, but there
are ways to make it a little easier to handle.
Just because you can now date someone online doesn’t mean love is
suddenly easier for everybody. If anything, a lot of single men and
women would even swear that it’s harder now than it’s ever been.
Hence, more people are worrying about dating anxiety and why it can be
more challenging in the digital age.
What Is Dating Anxiety?
A 2023 poll published by The Independent found that nearly 9 out of 10
people feel nervous before a first date. 39% even admit to consuming
alcohol to calm themselves down.
This can be attributed to dating anxiety or the excessive fear
experienced by people who pursue romantic relationships.
To be fair, it’s normal to have worries when you’re putting yourself
in the dating market. It takes a lot of courage and commitment, not to
mention the time and effort it requires to meet people and find out if
you're compatible enough for the kind of relationship that you want.
But while dating anxiety isn’t officially part of the DSM or the
Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, it can be a
legitimate issue especially in the modern dating world where
technology can make things just as convenient as they are panic
inducing.
Dating Anxiety Symptoms You Need to Take Seriously
The key term here is “excessive.”
Even if a bit of fretting and second-guessing is expected when you’re
dating, there are signs that can indicate that what you’re going
through is no longer normal.
Repetitive Negative Thoughts
A few whispers of doubt are okay. That just means you’re a human
being who is concerned about making people like you and doing your
best.
But if your negative thoughts don’t seem to end, to the point that
they start to become debilitating, then it’s possible that you have
dating anxiety that needs to be addressed.
If you’re not careful, your thoughts can translate into words and
actions that you’ll regret later on.
Uncontrollable Physical Reactions
If the sweating and heart palpitations are getting out of hand, then
you have to find a way to manage them.
Even when you’re online dating, where movement and facial
expressions aren’t immediate concerns, it’s still possible to have
physical reactions when you’re worried about impressing someone or
afraid of getting rejected.
Before you go down the rabbit hole and end up diagnosing yourself
with unrelated mental health conditions via WebMD, it’s best to be
familiar with dating anxiety and the toll it can sometimes take on
the body.
Mood Swings
The internet is notorious for encouraging fast-paced lifestyles that
make people bounce from one emotion to another within a short amount
of time.
But even though dating today can have a deep impact on your state of
mind, you still have to take note of severe mood swings caused by
fears surrounding your quest for love.
Not only are they unhealthy, but your mood swings can also make you
bad company, which is hardly the goal if you’re trying to convince
someone you’re a good catch.
How to Stop Dating Anxiety
You can’t always control your thoughts and feelings, but there are
ways to make sure that they don’t overwhelm you.
One good tip is by having realistic expectations, both of yourself and
the people you meet.
Dating with social anxiety in the modern world can be exacerbated by
constant influence from people and trends online. You will only get
more worried if you let your mindset be shaped by the kind of love
others tell you to chase or the kind of person
you need to become just to be loved.
To avoid that, take a step back once in a while and reassess just what
kind of partner and relationship you really want to have.
In this day and age when romance can feel like a complicated
obligation, it’s important to hold on to what really matters — a love
that is stronger than any of your worries and fears.
