Go outside if you want to date someone!

"Why is GenZ single" because most people don't go outside and socialize. If you're someone who complains about being single name 3 places you go to socialize weekly or even monthly. No one is going to bust down your door trying to date you. Volunteer, find a club on Facebook or instragram(run clubs,hiking clubs, chess clubs ,if you don't know how to do an activity learn), activities/classes at your community center. Look up events your city is throwing they're usually free. If you don't like the vibes of the group or volunteer org you're in join a different one. Even if you meet older people or people in relationships they might be able to set you up with someone or introduce you to someone in their friend group. Free clubs for Gen z / millinials are all the rage now because we crave connection. A chess club I know grew to 500 people meetings in less than a year even with people paying $50 a person (don't worry there's tons of free ones you can join). People are desperate for connection. If there's no clubs near you make your own page for it and follow thousands of people in your geo location on social media. That's how people get these clubs started. You have to be the change you want to see.

The number one reason people get married is because of proximity. If you're not going anywhere regularly to meet people you obviously you're not going to meet someone and know them well enough to establish a non superficial connection. I'm sick of hearing people complain about dating apps. Most women don't even use dating apps. 2/3 of dating apps are men (in Europe 80% of people on dating apps is men) so even if every woman married a man she met on a dating app 1/3 of men who use dating apps would still have to go outside and socialize to date someone.

It's not our fault. Corporations, cops, helicopter parents, etc have gutted third spaces. A third space is somewhere free people go to socialize that's not home or work(school). However, it's our responsibility as the new adults / generation to reclaim these spaces and build our own communities!

In conclusion, it's those damn phones.
