Did the Hinge, Bumble, Tinder, all that jazz, so... Plenty of Fish.

I feel like there's just more, uh, pressure on, like, an immediate connection.

I think that might be because of the apps.

By the time you meet up, you feel compatible.

And even if you're not going on a date with someone you met on an app, it still feels like, all right, like, this... if this isn't an immediate connection, like, let's swipe away from this.

I mean, I was a lot younger, so there was definitely a lot less communication.

The dating apps were newer, so I think the way people were, the way they acted was more reminiscent of the way dating used to be.

Now, it's just like, swipe, swipe for the next best thing and the grass is always greener.

Like, back then, I would, like, see a red flag and be like, "Ooh, it's Six Flags," like, I'm ready to have a great time.

But now, it's kind of like, as soon as I see something that I'm, like, that doesn't look right, then I'm a lot quicker to not really entertain it.

- I use a lot of dating apps.  - Everyone in the university, they were also on it.

I just went for the attractive model kind of face, and if it was close to that, I'd swipe right.

When it comes to dating, I can't say that I was, like, dating in the past.

I can honestly say, like, dating apps have helped.

I was in Boston maybe two years ago in the summer and someone said, you know, let's meet at whatever bar was nearby.

And I went, and sort of looked back because he was late to showing up, and then he had deleted his profile.

Which means he either planned to dupe me because he was not who he said he was or he was just playing games.

My impression is that everyone has, like, the next best thing or another option, especially with dating apps.

'Cause if you see one thing that you like, there can be another one three swipes later that you're like, oh, I kind of like that one better, and then you might have passed your soulmate.

And it sucks because you're on this bridge of just talking on the phone, like, texting, and you haven't gotten to the actual meeting point 'cause something always blocks.

Every person I've ever met on the Internet, like, dating apps, like, they always turn out to be like, a little kooky.

Like, just like, it's just always a mess.

I think for me, like, I'm... I much prefer to just meet someone, like, out and about or like a friend of a friend.

Well, I mean, I would just meet people in events; I just go to interest groups.

Like, let's say I wanna go (to), like, a real estate interest group.

-"Oh, my God, you're kind of cute."  - "So are you."

Or, like, organic building of relationships, like, just natural, you know, meetings, that's it.
