The Scarcity Burnout Loop
“The good ones are gone, the apps are a wasteland, and one more bad night proves it.” Burnout research on dating apps finds exhaustion and 'nothing I do works' grow with grinding use — and the script converts that fatigue into a market report about your prospects.
RECOGNITION SIGNS
- 01
You swipe like a night shift — joyless, quota-driven, and somehow guilty when you stop.
- 02
One flat date triggers a season-long shutdown: delete the apps, cancel the plans, declare a year of exile.
- 03
'I'd have to settle' and 'no one good is left' take turns — the script argues both sides so you never test either.
