Welcome to another episode of One Hot Mess. Today we will be talking about benching and dating and what to do when you have been sidelined.
Benching in the dating world means keeping potential partners as backup options, stringing them along without committing. This trend has become common with the rise of dating apps, where people juggle multiple partners. We'll discuss how to recognize if you're being benched, what it feels like, and how to handle it.
Common signs of benching include inconsistent communication, uncertainty about plans, last-minute arrangements, casual sex without emotional commitment, and one-sided interactions. Reasons for benching range from fear of being alone, unrealistic expectations, the influence of dating apps, stress, mental health issues, and a lack of empathy.
If you suspect you're being benched, communicate honestly with the person. Set boundaries to protect yourself and prioritize your own needs. If their behavior continues, it may be best to end the relationship.
