“It’s a Numbers Game” True or False?

I hear this time and time again, that you must pursue with dates and this will eventually lead to more confidence and success. After countless ghosting experiences or little interest from people I’m attracted to, I feel like dating is damaging my confidence and I feel entirely fatigued from even thinking about asking someone on a date now. Is anyone else in the same boat, can you just not be bothered with going through the ordeal of dating anymore?
