You Weren’t Born At The Wrong Time—Dating Has Always Been Hard
It’s common for singles today to lament the unique struggles that modern dating culture presents and to wish they’d been born decades ago, in a “simpler” time, when finding love was “easier.” But was it actually?
If there’s one thing every single person can agree on, it’s this: Dating can be hard. It can be disheartening to go on a string of first dates, only for none of them to lead to anything lasting. It can be tiring trying to decipher whether or not a guy is truly interested in you. It can be painful to hear well-meaning but embarrassing questions like “How are you still single?” at every family gathering. It can be frustrating to feel like you’re giving finding love your best effort but keep coming up empty. Dating, for many, isn’t simple.
