It's Been a Minute
The joy of breaking up with dating apps

And tomorrow, I've got a brand new video episode about daters looking for men in finance.

Coming up after the break,

Well, I think a lot of people would say that using dating apps is frustrating.

I think many would still agree that they are at least convenient.

Right.

But I think the biggest sell for the convenience of dating apps is the lowered possibility for rejection.

Like when you match with someone, you're ostensibly talking to someone who is already interested.

And in real life, when you go up to people, maybe they don't like your vibe or aren't even interested in your gender.

Like I think avoiding rejection is a big draw for some people.

That is so wild to me.

I mean, like back in the day, me and my friends went out to get numbers and give numbers.

And I remember being so shocked hearing that this is what the dating scene is like now for a lot of people.

Like actually the first time I heard this was last year.

I was out on the street talking to people for a different episode about dating with this group of 20 something girls.

Oh, so they feel like they have ultimate choice, like all these choices in their phone.

So the apps kind of train people out of having to experience rejection.

And so now the cost of going up to someone, it feels too high.

Listen, I don't disagree with you like at all.

But also, you know, rejection can be really psychologically tough on people.
