I'm so excited to be part of the AEPhi book club :) let me know your thoughts on the book.
To start the discussion off: i'd love to explore how dating has changed in the last few years with the internet's involvement. Is online dating or apps like Tinder, a good thing? Or, getting in the way of natural, in person communication? Does it make dating easier or more of a challenge?

I enjoyed reading Jen's book!
To answer the questions, I don't know if online dating or apps are necessarily bad or good but part of what comes with how we live our lives these days. I do think technology gets in the way of in person communication because we spend time checking our phones at the bar/restaurant/public places instead of communicating with the people around us, I would say online dating makes us much more picky (that could be just me) and we probably veto potential partners based on trivial things that we might have never noticed or didn't give weight to if we met naturally.

PS. Jen- I read it and loved it. And I love you, so I don't know if that had anything to do with it!
So proud of you!
