The Gamification Of Online Dating
I am definitely no stranger to online dating. In my 20s, I used Yahoo Personals and Match. I even met my husband Jay on Yahoo Personals. We were married throughout my entire 30s, then we split up, and I have been dating again, online, in my 40s. And believe me, online dating is quite a different monster than it was in my 20s.
