summary

This article explores the changing landscape of dating and social interactions in the digital age. It argues that small talk, once a crucial part of getting to know someone, is becoming less prevalent as people rely on technology for communication. The article suggests that dating apps and social media platforms have created a culture of instant gratification and surface-level connections, leading to a decline in meaningful conversations. Instead of engaging in small talk, individuals now often jump straight into discussing deeper topics or rely on shared interests and experiences to connect. The article highlights the potential consequences of this shift, including the loss of opportunities for genuine connection and understanding.
