A friend and I were talking, and the topic of dating came up.
So how do you date in a pandemic? My friend and I are of the mindset that you should meet someone the old fashion way… through friends. On-line dating seems so intimidating. But… how does that even work in a pandemic? I think that there are many single people out there wondering the same thing. I don’t know where to even begin with this…there are many layers. Do you need to quarantine for two weeks before you even have A drink, with the possibility of dinner? Do you carry your vaccination card around, like it is your drivers license? Should you have proof that you are two shots in? You have an elderly parent who lives with you and they aren’t visiting family members anymore. So, do you kindly ask them to go somewhere else so you can have a “friend” over for dinner? How do you explain to your parent that you would like some alone time with your date without being mortified? Lastly, let's not forget about having teenagers... Honestly, I am not sure how you date in a pandemic. Everything is closed, I look at everyone wondering do you have it, and how do you get to know someone six feet apart wearing a mask. Suggestions welcome? Or Pandemic dating sympathy? UGH… stupid COVID-19

How do you date in normal times? How do you date as a single mom? How do you date during a pandemic?

Oh Dear God. None of that sounds good. I would definitely wait until the pandemic has passed, You need to be able to smile outside of a mask and not worry about getting sick!

At least the mask can cover some of my facial expressions and I wouldn't have to worry about food in my teeth. But I don't envy anyone trying to date during these times. Good luck my friend! I will keep my eyes out for some nice Greek men.
