The biggest cock block award of 2020 has to go to Covid-19. It keeping us all inside, away from the clubs, bars, and parties we used to meet people at and is forcing us to remember what it’s like to actually get to know someone by talking on the phone. Whew. Bet no one thought dating in 2020 would be this hard when we were celebrating the end of 2019.
If you weren’t already in a live-in relationship, before quarantine, you’ve probably found online dating to be your new love-to-hate best friend.
For the single pringles–
Whether you live with someone or you’re running solo, the apps really are your saving grace. You may not have liked them before but man are you clinging to them now. Even if you just need someone to talk to on a consistent basis, dating apps are an easy go to and can at least bring some form of entertainment. matchmehappy.co.uk can help my friends over the pond find a love connection, even if it is just for companionship.
For the poor souls who moved back home–
Now, I don’t say this because living at home is so terrible. I say this because how on Earth are you bringing people back to your place?! Do you just tell people you have 2 roommates and you’d rather go to their house? Do you opening mention you moved back home so you can just get that awkward moment out of the way? It’s gotta be tough meeting people in quarantine during a pandemic anyway but now you have the added bonus of making sure their safe enough to bring around mom and dad. Joining a free dating site may at least help with meeting people. I still have no idea how to get past the parents as roommates conversation smoothly.
For the roomies–
Well, this is basically just like old times, huh? I remember the roomies day fondly. We all brought back whoever we wanted and tried not to get into each other’s way too much. The only difference is now you’re all probably a little more on edge about who’s coming over and where they plan on spending their time. Keep the disagreements to a minimum by giving everyone a heads up someone is coming over. That way they get the chance to leave if they’re worried about coronavirus.
For the live-in-lovers–
That’s me. Last, but certainly not least, we might have it the worst of them all. Now, I may be biased because this is my life but spending all your time with your significant other is just not healthy. You need space and time and energy to move about like a solo person every single day to feel whole. Being up under each other isn’t ideal but it’s also nice to know you don’t have to start talking to walls. There’s a lot of give and take when forced to stay home for 3 months or longer but when it comes to dating, we have that part figured out so I guess you could say we’re pretty lucky, too.
