I’ve been noticing something lately about dating apps. They can feel a bit like surveillance drones always collecting data and tracking swipes, but they don’t really shield you from the emotional bumps along the way. It’s like they’re observing from a distance without offering much real protection for your heart.
I’m curious if others have felt this way. How do you navigate that sense of being constantly monitored while still trying to make genuine connections? What’s worked for you in keeping things authentic when the platform itself feels so impersonal?
