Despite an explosion of dating apps and social media that seemingly make it easier to meet people, rates of marriage and couples living together have steadily decreased since 1990, according to the Pew Research Center. For singles looking for a relationship, dating is even harder than meeting potential partners. So, how do you go from the meet-cute to a lasting relationship? We’ll talk with coaches and experts about whether dating is becoming a lost art and how to improve your dating game.

Guests:

Daniel Yi, co-host, "I Hate Dating Apps" podcast
