I think this show is one of the very few to accurately portray closed-door interactions between people in the real world. The opener to Ep. 4 (First Date) was a perfect example of this. Knowing Dev's character so well at this point, it's pretty incredible how quick people are to judge, and to discard what could've been promising relationship-wise. That's how fickle the dating world is now, and I'd disagree that Dev lacks commitment (to a point). If anything, that's what he's been searching for from the beginning. I see him as a guy who wants to commit, but just can't ever find the right person/relationship. As artificial as the process can be (Tinder, whatever), he wants something organic and does try to put himself out there. It's a funny, heartbreaking thing to watch...because if finding love is the ultimate goal, it shouldn't have to be this hard. For a lot of people (including myself), Dev's predicament at 30+ is a reality.

This show has become a spirit animal of sorts, and I feel a lot of the episodes in this season were a direct teleplay of Modern Romance.

The talk about using these services for trolling/catfishing reminded me of this vicious yet funny story from another favorite podcast of mine:

Online dating is extremely interesting. I am monogamous and happily married, so I don't have any experience with it, but I do have several friends who have met significant others through various dating services.

An interesting book on the topic of modern dating is the book Modern Romance by Aziz Ansari (yes, the comedian from Parks and Recs).

Really good description of why it is problematic, although in that book Modern Romance, Ansari does make quite a few plausible arguments for OLD becoming more and more viable as society becomes stratified and populations more and more decentralized. OLD did work well for me in the past after developing a sort of rhythm with it (which took a year and a half); but that was when I dating in NYC with a plethora of opportunities.

Azis Ansari has evidence in his book Modern Romance that online dating is the most common way people meet spouses now.

u/lemon-lime-trees · 2 pointsr/CatholicDating

This is anecdotal, but my male classmates and co-workers had a hard time finding women genuinely interested in them when they mentioned "law school" in their profile.

Additionally, 1L is not the best time to be dating, or starting a relationship. Sorry. Across the board, that is where a lot of hurt happened for classmates, their former SOs or spouses. Lots of stress that first year because it is so new.

If you are working on losing weight... maybe you could use a picture of you doing some sort of activity (i.e. softball, 5k, cornhole, etc)? A picture is better than no picture.

*Disclaimer, I don't use dating websites. I lived vicariously through others in college and law school. Be outgoing during law school. It helps. But don't be surprised if non-law school/attorneys lose interest because you are too busy studying. Also, maybe briefly scan this quick read? It gives tips for profiles/profile pics as well.

Too long. Come up with a generic one-liner and use it for everyone. It seems impersonal but it works no worse than a personalized greeting.

Ah yes, modern relationship expert Aziz "marriage is an outdated-institution because I'm in showbiz and get to bang girls light-years out of my league if I wasn't rich and famous so why would anybody settle down if they had my life?" Ansari.
