The Paradox of Modern Relationships

<p>This episode explores the impact of social media and dating apps on modern people's romantic relationships. It points out that the convenient online interactions have led people to form two patterns in intimate relationships. One is being addicted to short-term or polyamorous relationships and pursuing the excitement of novelty, yet possibly being unable to adapt to long-term commitments. The other is longing for long-term relationships but feeling physically and mentally exhausted and doubting their self-worth in the process of constantly attempting short-term interactions. Only plain, lasting and mutually trusting long-term relationships can enable people to live a happy life.</p>
