Have you been “cookie jarred”? This is a “disgusting” behavior

It was a shocking experience.

Relationship experts warn that the rise of “cookie jarring” – a practice that allows dating multiple people at the same time to keep their choice open.

Those who “cookie jarred” are not the main characters of the suitor, but keep it as a backup in case things fall into the main object of the relationship.

“Honestly, you want to put them aside because you want others to be backups just in case that doesn’t work,” Arrezo Azim, an active psychology coach, said in the Daily Mail.

“The attention is surprising – but if you do, the long-term impact will be worse,” Azim added.

“Give yourself some time to know others without the impact of anyone else, and if things can’t be solved, it’s okay, but don’t get backups because of uncertainty,” Eugénie Legendre, a dating trend expert, told the Daily Mail.

Not only is this harmful to those who are doing cookie stings – it is also true for those who are put in the backup position, they may wonder why things are not progressing

Cookie Jarring’s victims described the practice as “disgusting”, “hairful” and “selfish”.

Cookie Jarring is not different from the “bench” and “breadcrumbs” trends that have been part of the dating dictionary in recent years.

“You like them, you just don’t like them to prioritize them,” Rachel Dealto, Match’s chief dating expert, previously told the post about the behavior.

It feels like a backup can damage the date’s self-esteem.

“It’s a natural desire to be wanted and seen. Being on the bench creates an unmet expectation and unclear boundary, and the person being replaced may start to feel that they are not important.”
