Why Your Love Life Feels Like a Full-Time Job

Staring at your phone at 2 a.m., wondering if you should text back immediately or wait exactly three hours and seventeen minutes-sound familiar? Welcome to modern romance, where finding love has become more exhausting than your actual job. A century ago, your great-grandmother married the guy upstairs because he seemed decent and wasn't a serial killer. Today, you're paralyzed by choice, swiping through hundreds of faces while simultaneously managing three dating apps, two ongoing text conversations, and an existential crisis about whether you're settling or just being realistic. This isn't just dating-it's a second career. Comedian Aziz Ansari teamed up with sociologist Eric Klinenberg to investigate why finding love feels harder than ever, conducting research across continents and interviewing hundreds of singles. What they discovered reveals how profoundly our romantic landscape has transformed in just one generation, creating both unprecedented opportunities and entirely new forms of suffering.
