I know, I know–you’ve been waiting for things to “get back to normal” so you could finally start looking for your next great love. Perhaps you tried to date during the pandemic and although some folks undoubtedly found love, the amount of effort required to date in such a strange time likely hasn’t returned nearly as many dates as before.
If you didn’t find love, I might be the only dating coach around to say it’s probably a GOOD thing. Building a relationship during a time where people’s usual lifestyle is so radically different from how it will be the bulk of the relationship is akin to coupling up on a season of the Bachelor. If you’ve ever watched the show, as magnificent as those relationships all look onscreen, we know statistically, they almost always fail post-production. Why? Because when the couple leaves the paradise the show created and tries to dive back into their REAL lives with its own demands and activities, they very often don’t fit as well into each other’s lives as they had hoped. I have a feeling a lot of pandemic-born relationships will suffer a similar fate once they resume work at the office, have friends they want to see and things they want to do again that divert attention away from their new love.
