What Can We Learn From Dating in the 70s and 80s!

[@mikemuha7537]

I had a blast in the 80s. Very different in how you could meet someone now, but I am still the same fun person I was back then, even better. The best part for me compared to then is my SMV. The tables have definitely turned.

not a believer in anything having to do with value ...but glad you enjoyed reminiscing!:)

[@DawnFromNZ]

"finding someone who feels like home"! What a wonderful thought, Carey. 😊

[@CoffeewithCarey]

I know right?!

Met my wife in grad school during a game of 4 square in 1982. After our dates I would call a few days later. When she moved away for work, I wrote letters! She kept them. When my kids went on dates, they sent a text that night to see that they got home okay.

[@CoffeewithCarey]

Yup. That’s it.

In the late 80s, my future husband couldn't even call me. He lived 15 minutes away but because it crossed state lines, it was long distance.

[@CoffeewithCarey]

Hahahha. I remember I had a long distance plan for years where I would call and Robin would answer! I literally knew her name and she handled all the Customer Service. -With a British accent even!

I believe that is true for a lot of people... but most definitley not everyone. No generalizing please.
