The differences between Gen-Z and the rest of the world are well documented. Everyone knows we're addicted to TikTok, call everyone "bestie" and love to call millennials cringe. But what are the less obvious traits of the generation? If you have a young person in your life, you might be baffled by some of their habits. Every generation has its quirks, cultural touchstones, and patterns of behavior. We're made by our circumstances, so when the world changes, so do we. Sometimes in unpredictable ways.
A recent Reddit post sparked a conversation about Gen-Z's dating habits or seemingly lack thereof. It's a complicated issue, and no generation is a monolith, but it got an interesting discussion going about how we socialize in a post-pandemic world, and what the internet might be doing to our social lives. Are Zoomers really destined to be forever alone, or are we just doing things a little differently?
