Let's talk about the complexities of modern dating. In a world where casual relationships and hookup culture is quickly becoming the norm, it has become so uncool to admit that you want a genuine connection. When did wanting to be loved become so uncool? Perhaps this is perceived as being synonymous with desperately longing for love and affection? In this candid episode, I recap a recent encounter during a house party and share my thoughts on the state of modern dating in 2024. From dating apps to "Love is Blind" Season 6! No spoiler :) But it's not all doom and gloom! Loneliness is a normal emotion. What's important is keeping your standards high while navigating the dating scene. Remember, wanting that passionate, crazy kind of love is NOT uncool!
