Speaking of dating apps, young people are using alternative ways to form connections. According to a recent survey, 47% of Americans believe dating is more difficult now than it was a decade ago. In response, some young people are taking matters into their own hands by creating custom dating apps, posting personal ads on platforms like Facebook, or even using Google Docs—dubbed “date-me docs”—to facilitate introductions.
