Just because you say you're single, you're not all similar. What are the levels? Like sad, sad, sadder, and most sad? That's only three. Saddest of all time. |
| 1:11.3 | Let's see which one of these levels you think is the saddest of all time. All right? This is from an influencer Eb Tilly on Instagram. The 10 levels of singles. He has a misnomer about being single is that like all single is the same. It's not. There's levels to the... Level one, you say you're single, but you're still pining over your ex-boyfriend or on a break for men. |
| 1:30.4 | Level two, you say you're single, but you're still |
| 1:27.5 | pining over your ex-boyfriend or on a break from him. Level two, you downloaded the dating apps. Level three, you're actually using the dating apps and going out with your friends at least once a week. Friends I mean girlfriends. And dressing up for that occasion. Level five, you realize the dating apps are enjoying some social league as a compliment to using the dating apps in order to meet somebody. |
| 1:45.0 | 126, you tried church. |
| 1:46.5 | 127, after hearing all of your married friends tell you that, you know, you just have to keep swiping. It's a numbers game. You threw yourself into the dating apps and went on four dates a week, only to realize that drinking four nights a week plus going out with your friends is exhausting. Double eight, you gave up and deleted all the apps. |

And finally, level 10, you will not go on a date, no matter how many times they ask you, even if they buy you flowers, even if they paid you. After all that, that's when allegedly you meet him. 10. 10. Where are you at? |
| 2:17.8 | I'm somewhere between deleted all of the apps and twin allegedly you need him. 10. 10. Where are you at? |
| 2:23.4 | I'm somewhere between deleted all of the apps and will not go on a date even if you paid me. |
| 2:30.5 | I feel like it's the, I don't know what the percentage of success stories are on dating apps, |
| 2:33.8 | but I feel like it's almost like hitting the lottery. Like if you know, you've seen in the news that somebody's going to hit the lottery, someone hits it. And they're rich and their life changes forever. But there are millions and millions and millions and millions of people that don't hit the lottery. But that one gives you this sense of like, okay, I can hit the lottery too. That's what's happening with dating apps. |
| 2:51.5 | I know a lot of people have success on the dating apps. And the thing is, once you meet somebody on the apps, you forget about the years that you spent on them with no luck. And so then when people ask, how did you meet? You're like, oh my gosh, we met on Hinch. You've got to get on the apps. It's the best. and you just conveniently forget the years of misery |
