“Did Millennials Ruin Dating for Gen Z?”

In this week’s episode of the Love Life Podcast, we’re exploring how Gen Z is rewriting the playbook on love and relationships. Is romance really taking a back seat to mental health and ambition, or is the story more complicated than that? We talk about:• Why Gen Z might be stepping away from traditional dating norms, and whether it’s a pushback against toxic dating culture or something deeper.• The rise of “situationships,” “explorationships,” and other modern takes on connection.• How social media and dating apps have shaped (and sometimes distorted) our ideas about love.• The surprising ways Millennials and Gen Z approach dating, and the lessons any generation can draw from them.The episode also dives into the emotional toll of modern dating, the fear of rejection, and why vulnerability feels tougher than ever.

Dating apps can feel like their own toxic relationship. We swear them off, only to come back because life is busy and meeting strangers in the real world feels nearly impossible. A Pew Research survey even found that more than a third of app users walk away feeling more pessimistic about dating than before. So why do we still cling to them, even when the experience leaves us drained?In this episode, I share the hidden truth that restores optimism in love, plus the one “dating app” I actually recommend if you’re serious about finding a real connection. (Spoiler alert: It’s not what you think.) If you’ve ever felt exhausted by swipes, ghosting, and endless options that lead nowhere, what I reveal in this video may be the missing piece between frustration and finally finding your person.---►► Love is Hard.
