To get a date on Tinder, OkCupid, Bumble, Shaadi.com (for Indian people), a lonely man has to create his own account in an unromantic search for "true love."
On another computer, a lonely girl holding a tub of chocolate ice cream creates her profile with a risqué picture of herself, after her recent break-up.
Then the momentous journey of finding you true love begins. Swiping left and right, up and down, until there's been a match with the lengthy 20-word descriptions you write about yourself- that usually aren't true- and a picture which is probably from when you were 20 pounds lighter.
Finally, when a match has been found, the alpha sends the first message to allow the baseless flirting to begin. You begin forcing a relationship by asking for the snapchat of someone you've become attracted to after learning basics like their profession and areas of interest- and poof! there you have true love.
Remember that romantic first date at the local Wendy's as you awkwardly fight over who's gonna pay- honestly "the facsimile of proper [date] behavior" and take gawky steps together to the exquisite wooden booth (Didion 103).
From there, the first meeting begins. You talk about your family and where you grew up and within the first five minutes you've already made a mental note of whether they're worthy to receive a snapchat from you ever again. And after that romantic escapade, you return and continue u to swipe right and left until you find a match again.
- This is the evolution of love stories in this day and age. Connections that used be made by stealing glances in the local coffee shop and shyly asking for some cute guy's number have become completely based on good wifi in order for Tinder to work. Love has simply become finding your right "match": truly dating absurd. Has this generation forgotten how to obtain true love? -
