The Pandemic has upended all of our lives in so many ways and dating is definitely one of them. But all is not in vain because love really needn’t be locked down! Here are a few things to keep in mind if you’re looking for love in the era of home quarantine.

Courting Is Back In

Thanks to Covid-19, the modern dating process has definitely slowed down. People are spending more time talking and getting to know each other. Courting is back in, rather than simply swiping right and moving on to the next profile. By matching people based on compatibility and personality, we should look for platforms that helps provide meaningful matches so this actually helps the conversation flow. When you’re set up with someone who compliments your personality, there are lower chances of forced, awkward conversations and higher chances of a meaningful connection.

It’s Okay To Be More Selective

The pandemic has put a lot of things into perspective for us and shown us that relationships are emotional anchors. People are being more intentional and selective when it comes to who they want to connect with. Meaningful relationships are definitely even more of a preference than casual relationships. This shift is definitely a positive approach as understanding and intention is much clearer from the start of a connection.

Making It More Meaningful

First dates can be nerve-wrecking enough but having to do them on video, coupled with Covid anxiety can be super overwhelming to say the least. How do you keep the conversation going and get past the awkwardness without having to ask and answer the same old questions like do you enjoy your work and what do you do for fun? We’ve all been there and done that and it can get tiresome pretty fast. So how do you set the base for a deeper conversation on a date via video?

Get More Creative With Your Video Dates

Dating via texts, calls and zoom from the get-go can get stale very quickly. It’s easy to get bored with just chatting on video, especially if you’ve never actually met in person. But there are so many cool ideas you can try together on your next Zoom date for a novel experience and to keep things interesting.
