10. The idea of being “single forever” isn’t terrifying or even mildly depressing.
11. You haven’t made peace with your past.
Whether you’re still pining for someone who isn’t available or doesn’t return your feelings, or you’re gun-shy and mistrustful after being burned, you’re probably not keen on jumping into any relationship while you’re still processing the past.
12. You haven’t intentionally introduced a romantic interest to your family and friends since… well, you don’t actually remember when. Probably never.
We won’t talk about those awkward accidental meetings where you run into friends while you’re on a date. No one likes when their introduction to their date’s friend is followed by “this is really no big deal.”
13. You don’t like the term “dating.”
“We’re just hanging out.”
“We’re kind of seeing each other.”
“It’s not a big deal.
If these are terms you’ve used to describe someone you’re… um… dating, then the fact that you can’t even call it dating is a sure sign you are afraid of… you know… dating.
