Current Dating as Preparation for Divorce
Dating is like practice for divorce. It teaches you how to recover from breakups but not how to maintain a marriage. Instead, you learn skills like making someone jealous, moving on quickly, meeting new people, playing hard to get, and playing games. This doesn't teach you how to sustain a relationship or recognize toxic behaviors in yourself. The current dating culture focuses on protecting oneself and avoiding emotional attachment. It promotes risk aversion and guarded responses.
