Nobody wants to say they met their boo on a stupid dating app. For whatever reason, our culture still associates dating apps with desperation. But here’s the thing: sure, it’d be nice to meet people in person like the good old days when grandpa rode to school on a donkey and your friends actually looked at you instead of their phones when you had conversations, but those days are over. So get with the program, y’all. The survival of our species has always depended on adaptation and willingness to change.

Change is hard, and letting go of bad habits is even harder. Once in awhile though, you have to suck it up, realize that you’re an adult, and dispose of all the habits, vices, and routines that aren’t working for you anymore.
Whether it’s in your daily life or your dating life, there are certain patterns that we all tend to fall into.

Dating today, on the other hand, is a whirlwind of opportunity—and confusion.
We meet people through online dating services and through apps, swiping left and right based on a profile we’ve created—a profile that can sometimes feel like a brand we’re trying to sell to potential suitors. When we actually meet this person in the flesh, we have no idea if our relationship is potentially serious or casual, romantic or platonic. The doubt and ambiguity is just too much!

Social networks like Instagram, Facebook and Tinder have not only changed the way we interact with people; they’ve also redefined the way we find a date for Saturday night.
Our grandparents might disagree with the practice of online dating and tell us the best way to meet a soulmate is the old-school way. Most people from early generations met their life partners at school, work or through family and friends. Of course, some of us still meet dates this way, but technology has altered the game drastically. We can now make connections with strangers from the comfort of our beds, change our relationship status in one click and communicate interest with a few strategic Instagram “likes”. Continue Reading
