"Dating apps have been consistently disappointing. But, meeting people in real life before knowing anything about them has also been scary - you can't suss out the lunatics until it's too late.

"My last relationship lasted eight months. We broke up because it was long-distance and I wasn't interested in doing that anymore. I'm back on the dating app scene and feeling positive about it.
David (Arizona)

"Modern dating is exhausting. It's like a job hunt, where the pay is no longer the biggest selling point. Now it's all about quality of life. We don't have to settle. Which is great, but that also makes it hard be serious about anyone.
