Maybe it’s time to try dating the ‘old-fashioned’ way.

This comment was by Jessica in reference to the post – The Shocking Reason Why I Shut Down My Tinder Account
I’m 23 and tried Tinder, but it’s really hard to find someone my age looking for a relationship. I don’t do hookups and definitely not the type of girl that a lot of men seem to be looking for online, and I’d actually love the chance to meet someone “the old-fashioned way” so I will make more of an effort to hold eye contact and smile if I actually receive it from someone in public.
I think the younger generation has become rather unskilled in actually “picking up” people face-to-face because they’ve been raised on apps and dating sites, so it may not yield me many dates, but I should hope that when it does, the all-natural way will land me something a lot more meaningful. Thanks for sharing your story!
