So I have had my far share of experience with online dating. In our day of age, it's tough to communicate with people without first going through the internet. Most people now use online dating more than ever before to find the one and why would you not? You have access to meet so many people from a vast array of different countries and cultures. So with all that I still hate tinder with a burning passion because of what it does to us as a culture.

You see when you make your profile, you list various things about yourself. You then swipe right or left on people you deem worthy of your time and thats it. It may be simple at first but truly what your doing is selling your self to people almost like a small advertisement of yourself hoping for someone to scoop you up. However, how many so characters cant describe who you are as a person and neither the other billion users on the app.

This makes us of course so reliant on a few sentences and a few pictures to make a decision of yes or no. This makes a mess of things and most people inevitably delete the app then find a match. So in essence, put your phone down and go experience life in your real life. Technology can go so far while life is and endless stream of possibilities waiting for you take it on. This has been the Topic of the Week, thanks for reading. Ricardo singing off.
