Only thing on those things are chasers, then being rural now and the actual risk for harm, nah I'll pass.

I think the trend might partially be the result of post-pandemic malaise and inflation. Kids aren't just dropping dating apps but the idea of having a social life entirely. No one has the money or will to go out anymore. My partner and I stopped doing date-nights long ago, and we're supposed to be "stable" adults—not broke college students. Nothing's fun anymore :/

so it was all a waste of time then lol

But the overwhelming majority of young people on campuses say they prefer to meet people in person.

and how do you do this when you're out of school, don't have a car and live in suburban old-people hell?
