How Dating Apps Change Human Connection

Honest.

It was honest anyway.

And nothing happened.

On the contrary, Nikki had called late at night in a frenzy of happiness and told him about the date.

She had chatted for 20 minutes.

He hadn’t known her for very long, but he was sure he had never heard her so happy.

He had read her post and wondered if it was like the last one.

That she was lying.

But that didn’t seem to be the case at all.

Her willingness to carry out the experiment was genuine, and she concluded by saying that she was looking forward to the next date.

He asked if she would like to meet him again.

He made it sound like a friendly question, and she answered maybe but that her thoughts were somewhere else.

They were in her own mind.

She needed to sleep on it.

With those words he was satisfied.

When she finally closed her eyes, the day played out before her mind, and the next morning she felt it summed up in a fairly sober state.

Yes.

It had been a fantastic day and date.

No.

It hadn’t given her what she was looking for.

And that was the short post she wrote on Dating Line and which Joachim read minutes later when he received a notification of an update in the app.

Not much he had read had given him the satisfaction he now felt.

But not much he had read had worried him at the same time.

He was a little over 20 years old, but he had never been on the verge of truly falling in love.

Until now.

This was more than a friendship.

From his side…

PlayNDate was created for people who wanted something slower, deeper and more human.
