How to Find True Love

"We all know dating sucks. It hasn't gotten any easier since it was invented, in fact, it can be argued that the advent of online dating, apps like Tinder and Hinge, and now AI has made it nearly impossible to find love even though we're more connected than ever. And yet, as challenging as it is to meet someone, we're all still desirous of love, because we're humans, and we're facing a loneliness epidemic and many report feelings of touch-deprivation from experiencing little to no physical contact, which it turns out can negatively affect your mental health. With How to Find True Love, matchmaker and dating expert Francesca Hogi provides a better, more realistic plan for actually finding real love--and no, not the kind we see in rom coms and animated movies. Hogi seeks to bring purpose to modern dating and optimism to the hearts of cynical daters everywhere. With her advice, exhausted romantics will find comfort in releasing the impossible ideal of one perfect person being their "one true love," and instead understand that true love is first and foremost a type of relationship, not an individual person, and that true love is really an inside job.
