The algorithm has so completely altered the way we date that meeting someone in real life seems almost impossible, and when you do meet them that way it often ends exactly the same way it would if we met them online — with them losing interest before the third date and then they periodically fire-emoji-reacting to all of our Instagram stories for the rest of time.
