Tweets That Perfectly Sum Up What Dating Has Been Like This Past Year

Yes, people, it has been a full year since all of this craziness started. It has been one of the most difficult years for hundreds of reasons, but one of the many struggles definitely included making new connections. Dating is already a risk, but suddenly it wasn't just a risk for you, but a risk for your whole family, your whole group of friends, and really the whole world (eventually). Obviously, things aren't 100% back to normal, but they are definitely better than it once was. Though let me be clear, even though restaurants are opening, don't expect me to get cuffed, I'm still awkward AF.

If your love life took a major L this past year, but you're ready to jump back into the game, you may appreciate the nostalgia that many of these Tweets will bring you.

Honestly, we have all used this excuse from time to time. Once it became okay to start seeing a few people at a time, it really just depended on the person. If somebody called you up and asked to hang, it was such an easy excuse to say, "I'm really just trying to protect my family." Even if your family lived across the country.

Yes, imaginary friends are the way to go. Especially for the people who aren't even in a couple. If you forgot to move your clothes from the washer to the dryer, don't beat yourself up! Just blame Cheryl. She knew it was her turn and she still f***ed up. Typical Cheryl, we gotta do something about her.
