That sounds awful. My dating life ended in 1977 when I met my husband. When I was in high school, dating wasn’t really a thing unless someone asked you to the prom or something. We went out in groups mostly. My older sisters graduated from college in 1971. The had it really bad. There was a lot of pressure to always have a date for Friday and Saturday night. They needed extensive wardrobes just for dating. So many rules of behavior, too. I think dating has always been awful, though, just in different ways.
