“Real Connection > Swiping: Why The Feels Works

Allie Hoffman from The Feels joins us to break down why dating apps didn’t just change how we meet — they changed how we behave.

No more friend intros. No more accountability. No more “be decent because we run in the same circles.”

Now it’s swiping, ghosting, vanishing, repeat.

We get into:

• Why nobody knows how to approach someone in real life anymore

• How apps rewired our sense of connection

• What we actually crave (spoiler: it’s not more options)

• And why The Feels is bringing dating back to being… human

If you’re dating, healing, or just curious about why everything feels off — this one’s for you.
