Modern Dating Advice For Beginners

Dating is brutal and it’s getting harder to date these days.

There are more distractions, more ambiguity, and more complications than ever, thanks to things like messaging, rising cost of living, social media, bad dating advice, online forums, isolation, WFH, and a decrease in available time.

These days, many people are entering the dating world for the first time or re-entering after a long period of being out of the dating loop, whether it’s due to COVID, a break-up, divorce, widowhood, or taking time for themselves.

This is a unique time we live in where people have less dating experience, have more jaded opinions about dating, have delayed dating/relationships, use AI to make photos, draft profiles and write messages and move around often from city to city.

With all this noise, dating can feel overwhelming at best and dystopic at worse.

Dating can be fun and a great learning experience, but it can destroy self-esteem, take a toll on your mental health and can even affect other parts of your life like career, friendships and physical health.

Before you invest too much time into apps or bad dates, be sure to read below to save yourself much-needed effort and energy. Similarly, this advice can be helpful for those who have been dating a long time and need a new perspective or mindshift.
