Better said, would you prefer to date before dating apps and social media or today’s world of dating?

I wasn’t alive in the eighties so I can’t really compare the two. I don’t really mind dating in todays current environment. You have to weed through a lot of people but I have also had a lot more success meeting people outside of dating apps than meeting people on them.

Do you meet those people through friends, an outing or the supermarket etc?

[Rei13]

I’ve met the majority of people I’ve dated through friends with the exception of one that I met in a college class and another at a previous job

That’s a good way to do it and how it happened pre-social media and apps.

In the 80s seemed less complicated, hardly any social media but the news

The only difference is now everyone's on amphetamine instead of cocaine

Hmm wasn't that the heyday of AIDS? About when it started to show up in the straight community?
