This American woman ‘oscillates’ between three boyfriends to avoid the pain that comes with heartbreak

Serena Kerrigan
Over the summer, Serena Kerrigan was blindsided when a man dumped her on text in the early stages of dating. Hurt and upset, the 28-year-old decided it was time to approach dating differently. She’d casually see three men at the same time to stop herself from “hyper-fixating” on a single guy and save herself from heartache, when she got passed over or ghosted.
“I was so attached to the idea of [the guy I was dating] because I was only dating him versus dating multiple people,” said Kerrigan, a producer and entrepreneur. Kerrigan, who defines “dating” as spending one-on-one time with someone, said that seeing multiple people as opposed to just one person has changed her attitude about herself.
