I love the fact that you associate dating with productivity 😂
-
Only Ali can do 6 step routine for dating. 😂
-
I don't know who needs to hear this, but don't chase comfort at the age of labor, so you won't labor at the age of comfort.

This is the post-date 8: 1. What side of me did they bring out? 2. How did my body feel during the date? 3. Do I feel more energized or de-energized than before the date? 4. Is there something about them I’m curious about? 5. Did they make me laugh? 6. Did I feel heard? 7. Did I feel attractive in their presence? 8. Did I feel captivated, bored, or something in between?

lol, that transition to the Brilliant sponsorship was so smooth! Nicely done 6:30
-
I’m just happy that Ali is dating someone and is happy in life. I wish you both well.
-
Me & hubby met online. 10 years later we are happy married with 2 great kids. Good luck for you Ali 😊
-
The way you integrated sponsorship into this video killed me 😂 great video as always!
-
Your videos are so professional! I love your style of editing and I can clearly see the amount of work you've put in :)
-
Good "How to" video. Great content. I like it when you combine information from your personal experience, interviews with thought leaders, and insights you gained from books in your videos. Thanks!
-
I really appreciate those Date Evaluation questions, super helpful with determining how to move forward!
-
Your videos have been helpful Ali. I hope to jump on this as well. I also love the quality of your videos, this is so clean and professional 👏👏👏👌
-
The romantic in me is quaking. The scientist in me appreciates this and is invigorated 😂
-
thanks for sharing your perspectives around this!
-
Thanks for the video! I read also the book that you in the past proposed "How to not die alone" and it was SUPER HELPFUL! thanks also for that!💙
-
Omg thank you so much for this video, I think it will save lots of people from trauma.

I've been meeting people from the Internet since 2001-- sometimes for dating, other times just to meet up with friends. I've always been open to meeting outside of my geographical area, way way outside of it. I currently live in North Dakota where the dating pool is just a tiny puddle, and it's difficult to make friends here, too. Meeting friends or dating from the Internet has given me opportunities to learn about new cultures, travel hundreds if not thousands of miles away to meet up with friends, show friends around when they have traveled here, and opened up entirely new worlds for me.
-
This is so on brand, I love it!
-
The thing about dating is app that they make money based on user retention. The longer single you are the more money they make. There will be matches and dates but it won’t meet the effort you put. I think joining social clubs and activities are much better to have dates.
