Shownotes
Dating in the “normal” world was already a challenge, but since COVID-19, the crisis has restructured the dating etiquette for all of us. Virtual dating, unsolicited horny dude pics, and social distancing dates are just the tip of the iceberg of the dating world during quarantine. In episode 2, Becca and Sara share their remote dating stories along with some advice from their experiences to bear with isolation while still having fun. We know, the pre-lockdown world makes us nostalgic too. Tune in to learn all about dating during quarantine — including Becca and Sara’s fun tips for you to consider once the bars open their doors again!
