Emily - congratulations on your book. I can't wait to read it.

I tried my dating for the first time after my divorce in my late 40s, that too online. In many ways I was like Ben, but matched with my boyfriend who'd been on apps (on and off) for decades. I guess we were the algorithmic anomaly that people speak of. I can't say the same about so many of my friends who haven't been so lucky. The culture has changed and I agree about accountability missing, along with basic honestly and decency. Kudos to your for starting at app. It must have been such a learning experience for you.
