Ah, dating in 2025—the era where we’ve mastered the art of texting but forgotten how to actually go on a date. Are we all just modern-day pen pals, endlessly messaging “Good morning” and “How was your day?” without ever meeting up? Or is there still hope for real romance, candlelit dinners, and actual face-to-face conversations that don’t involve emojis?
Remember when men used to call just to hear your voice? Now, they send a two-second “GM” text and think that’s effort. And chivalry? It’s on life support. Holding doors open? Rare. Planning a date? Practically extinct. These days, a man will ask you out and then hit you with, “So, what you wanna do?” Sir, I wanna be courted!
And let’s talk about the new dating rituals—if a man likes you, he won’t send flowers; he’ll just send a meme. If a woman is interested, she won’t flirt—she’ll just double-tap your IG story and hope you take the hint.
But wait…before we declare romance officially dead, let me tell you—chivalry is not gone! There are still some good ones out there. I know because I met one! A real man who cooked for me, gave me flowers, and even held my hand and prayed. And let me tell you, God’s been listening because my heart was smiling inside like, “Sir, where have you been all my life?” And the best part? He didn’t want or expect anything in return. Hallelujah!
So, is there still hope for true love in 2025, or should we all just embrace our fate as professional pen pals? Let’s discuss—have you found romance, or are you stuck in the never-ending “Good morning, beautiful” text cycle? Drop your funniest dating experiences in the comments!
