It usually costs between 70,000 and 100,000 won to go on a date and have a meal and a drink. It's not just about the money; after getting your soul drained by running into one strange person after another, your mental health goes bankrupt before your bank account does. According to a survey by the American dating service Match Group, 78% of users experience serious burnout while using dating apps.
If you keep picking and suffering from the same toxic types every time you go out, it's not a coincidence. It is highly likely that the 'repetition compulsion' mentioned by psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud is at work. It is an instinct to desperately try to recreate the deficiencies you experienced in childhood as an adult. To break free from this tiresome cycle, stop relying on feelings like “we click well” and start using a very cold, mechanical filter.
You need to be wary of people who shower you with affection from the very beginning of a relationship. In psychology, this is called 'Love Bombing.' Truly healthy people approach you slowly, matching your pace. Conversely, emotionally unstable people dump their dark pasts or betrayals by their exes on you shortly after meeting to trigger your sympathy.
To step on these emotional landmines in just 10 minutes, remember these three things:
If you can get this filter to work properly, you can save the 100,000 won you were about to waste on a first date and months of emotional drainage in just 10 minutes.
Human relationships are supposed to deepen slowly, like peeling an onion. This is a key point in the 'Social Penetration Theory' by psychologists Irwin Altman and Dalmas Taylor. Emotional manipulators ignore this stage and charge straight into the heart, paralyzing your reason. To avoid being a slave to hormones deceived by fake intimacy, you must mechanically follow three rules until your third meeting.
| Category | First Date | Second Date | Third Date |
|---|---|---|---|
| Contact Frequency | Send only light check-in messages 1-2 times a day | Periodic check-ins 3 times a day (no calls after 11 PM) | Maintain a casual level of communication (block late-night contact) |
| Depth of Conversation | Limited to social personas like jobs and hobbies | Share personal tastes and values | No conversations about past relationships or deep wounds |
| Location and Cost | Within 1.5 hours at a quiet cafe (Dutch pay) | Light meal course (alternate paying for meal and coffee) | Activity-centered spaces like exhibitions or parks (return home before the last subway) |
Activating this control device secures at least two weeks of physical time. It is the minimum safety device that allows you to observe the other person objectively before your brain gets pickled by dopamine and makes stupid decisions.
If you keep attracting strange people, there is a high probability that your dating app profile is optimized for people looking for entertainment or casual encounters. You need to reorganize the playing field using the 'Clear-Coding' technique, which transparently reveals your values and lifestyle from the start. This is a concrete way to break the vicious cycle of meeting similar types at the same bars you always frequent.
Approaches for entertainment purposes will be filtered out automatically by this profile. If you shift the playing field toward values, the probability of leading to a second date will certainly increase compared to random matching.
In the early stages of dating, your prefrontal cortex function drops. Even if the other person breaks a promise, you start rationalizing, thinking, “There must be a reason.” To avoid falling into the swamp of cognitive dissonance, you should create a decision-making sheet every Sunday night that records the other person's words and actual actions. This is a device to judge based solely on data, not being deceived by the sweetness of the conversation.
Every Sunday evening, assign a weight () to the following 5 items and an action score () for the other person, from 1 to 10 points each, and add them up.
For example, if emotional self-reliance () is very important to you, set the weight at 9 points; if the person showed a 5-point performance this week, the score for that area becomes 45. Add all 5 items up this way to get the total score.
If the cumulative total drops below half of the perfect score, trigger the relationship termination protocol without hesitation. Send a message like, “While we've been meeting and talking, I've confirmed that our communication tempo and values aren't aligning. I think it would be better to end things here for our own healthy lives,” and end the situation. If you write this sheet mechanically every Sunday, you can reduce the time spent dragging things out pointlessly and becoming emotionally exhausted by at least 3 months.
