These are different times, for the young generation growing up digital and online, but also for us middle aged and over; should we accept it, adapt and live alone?

Stats show that going into a marriage, the odds are fifty fifty it’ll fail. Long distance relationships don’t seem to work out. Meeting someone you’d tolerate enough to move in with seems like a lot of work. Work isn’t fun. Fluther is fun.

These are different times. Sould we embrace it, and just live solo – dating whenever without commitment, guilt free?

I think one should embrace whatever works best for them.

These days, I think the dating life can be equally as hard as committed relationships. I guess it depends on the people involved though.

I love the two topics. :)

I’m confused, is this about online dating, or my mom trying to work the computer?

If it’s the latter, she’s only 45 but she’s ridiculous. “I keep clicking this! Why won’t it work?!” or “why do I need an iPhone?! Don’t put my contacts in there! I have the numbers memorized!” 45 going on 75. If something ever happened to my dad, she wouldn’t know how to date online. I’d have to teach her. damn it.
