I'd read an interesting article in The 8 00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:22,239 Speaker 1: Atlantic that talks about how jen Z, which is a 9 00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:29,560 Speaker 1: generation that has dated only online, is now nostalgic for serendipity. 10 00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:32,080 Speaker 1: They want to have that feeling of falling in love, 11 00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:36,000 Speaker 1: whereas they have in this generation has wanted to curate 12 00:00:36,080 --> 00:00:38,879 Speaker 1: the experience to be in control.

But they're nostalgic therefore 16 00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:51,840 Speaker 1: for a form of falling in love that's never been real. 17 00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:55,840 Speaker 1: Even in our generation when we dated offline, no one 18 00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:57,880 Speaker 1: really met that way. You met through family, you met 19 00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:00,840 Speaker 1: through work, you met through friends. That and falling in 20 00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:04,200 Speaker 1: love with a stranger has been romanticized in popular culture. 21 00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:08,680 Speaker 1: But that's not real.
