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.

Serena Kerrigan says she’s ‘never been happier’ with her love life after deciding not to date just one man at a time
“Operating in abundance,” she said, is “the best thing that I did for my confidence.” She clarified that she doesn’t see all three men every week and instead “oscillates” between them to make plans. But while she might be seeing less of each guy, she said it allows her to focus on what she values, which is “quality time and great conversation”.
Many people on TikTok agreed with her and had tried the same thing. Many of the users commenting on her post from earlier this month, which has more than 448,000 views so far, noted the strategy helped them take better control of their dating life. Rather than feel like they’d been “chosen” by a man to date them, the “rule of threes” instead allowed them to “choose” the kind of person they really wanted to be with.
Los Angeles-based dating coach and therapist Jaime Bronstein praised the notion of casually dating more than one person at a time. Dating multiple people removes some of the “nervous” energy that sometimes comes with focusing on just one person, Bronstein said, as well as eliminates the possibility that you may be building someone up in your head.
Is this the world’s smallest town?
This agricultural hamlet in Istria has only two streets and three rows of houses
Located in central Istria, approximately a 2.5 hours drive from Croatia’s capital city of Zagreb, the medieval hilltop town of Hum is home to between 20 and 30 people (27 as of 2021). It measures only 100 m long and 30 m wide. Surrounded by a small stone fence erected in medieval times to protect the town from bandit attacks, Hum somehow never outgrew this barrier in the way that most other towns did. The reputation of ‘world’s smallest town’ has done wonders for Hum, and today tourism counts as one of the two main sources of income for the locals, along with agriculture. There isn’t that much to see, but locals do their best to make visitors feel welcome.
