Just Between Us: From ghosting to 'Are We Dating The Same Guy?'- Modern love in Ireland
"Is modern dating really as chaotic as it seems? This week on Just Between Us, Jennifer Zamparelli brings together three single guests in their 20s, 30s and 40s to explore the realities of modern dating and whether genuine connection is still possible in a world dominated by swipes, situationships and shifting expectations. Helen, 27, offers the perspective of a younger dater who prefers meeting people in real life over relying on apps."
"Doireann in her 30s, reflects on how giving up alcohol has changed her approach to relationships whilst Rory, in his 40s, brings insight from dating both men and women, the rise of hookup culture on dating apps, and the growing belief that something "better" is just one swipe away. Together, they unpack red flags, unrealistic standards, online behaviour, dating fatigue and the shift toward instant gratification."
Three single daters in their 20s, 30s and 40s compare experiences and perspectives on contemporary dating. Helen, 27, prefers meeting people in real life rather than relying on apps. Doireann, in her 30s, reports that giving up alcohol changed her approach to relationships. Rory, in his 40s, brings perspective from dating both men and women and notes the rise of hookup culture and the belief that something better is always one swipe away. The group examines red flags, unrealistic standards, online behaviour, dating fatigue, and instant gratification, and reflects on lessons about love, self-worth and genuine connection after repeated mismatches and false starts.
