I feel like there's just more, uh, pressure on, like, an immediate connection.

我覺得要快速與人產生連結會比較有壓力。

I think that might be because of the apps.

我覺得這可能是因為交友軟體。

By the time you meet up, you feel compatible.

當你們見面時，你會感到合得來。

And even if you're not going on a date with someone you met on an app, it still feels like, all right, like, this... if this isn't an immediate connection, like, let's swipe away from this.

就算你不是跟交友軟體上的人約會，還是會覺得...好吧...這...如果這個人沒有馬上讓你有感覺，那就往左滑，看下一位吧。

Dating 10 years ago...

10年前的約會...

I mean, I was a lot younger, so there was definitely a lot less communication.

我那時還很年輕，肯定少了很多溝通。

The dating apps were newer, so I think the way people were, the way they acted was more reminiscent of the way dating used to be.

交友軟體是很新穎的，我覺得這種方式會讓人們懷念過去的約會模式。

Now, it's just like, swipe, swipe for the next best thing and the grass is always greener.

現在就只是滑滑滑，下一個會更好，鄰家的草分外青。

Like, back then, I would, like, see a red flag and be like, "Ooh, it's Six Flags," like, I'm ready to have a great time.

回到以往，當我看到示警紅旗，我會說「哦，六個紅旗」，代表我準備好享受美好時光。

But now, it's kind of like, as soon as I see something that I'm, like, that doesn't look right, then I'm a lot quicker to not really entertain it.

但現在只要我看到那種東西，我會覺得那看起來不太對勁。我很快地就不會感到興趣。

- I use a lot of dating apps. - Everyone in the university, they were also on it.

-我有用很多交友軟體。-在大學裡每個人，他們也都在上面。

I just went for the attractive model kind of face, and if it was close to that, I'd swipe right.

我只會找像漂亮模特兒般的臉龐，如果很接近那條件的話，我就會往右滑。

When it comes to dating, I can't say that I was, like, dating in the past.

說到約會，我不能說我之前有約會過。

I can honestly say, like, dating apps have helped.

我可以誠實地說，交友軟體幫助很大。

I was in Boston maybe two years ago in the summer and someone said, you know, let's meet at whatever bar was nearby.

兩年前夏天我在波士頓的時候，有個人說我們去附近的酒吧見面吧。

And I went, and sort of looked back because he was late to showing up, and then he had deleted his profile.

我去了，而那個人遲到，所以我回頭去看，發現他已經刪掉他的個人介面。

Which means he either planned to dupe me because he was not who he said he was or he was just playing games.

就代表他不是計畫要騙我，就是他在玩我，因為他不是他所說的那個人。

I downloaded Tinder.

我下載Tinder。

I've had Hinge.

我以前有Hinge。

I've had OkCupid.

我以前有OkCupid。

I've had Bumble.

I've had Plenty of Fish.

I've had Coffee Meets Bagel.

我以前有Coffee Meets Bagel。

I've had...

我以前有...

I've had every dating app of mankind.

我以前有所有的交友軟體。

It doesn't work.

都沒用。

My impression is that everyone has, like, the next best thing or another option, especially with dating apps.

我的印象是每個人都有下一個更好的或其他選項，尤其是在交友軟體上。

'Cause if you see one thing that you like, there can be another one three swipes later that you're like, oh, I kind of like that one better, and then you might have passed your soulmate.

因為如果你看到某個你喜歡的，再往下滑三位之後，也會看到另一個你更喜歡的，然後你就有可能錯過你的靈魂伴侶了。

Men just don't communicate very well.

男人不太善於溝通。

And it sucks because you're on this bridge of just talking on the phone, like, texting, and you haven't gotten to the actual meeting point 'cause something always blocks.

很討厭的是，在還沒見到對方前，你在電話的另一端講電話或打訊息總是會碰到阻礙。

No.

不。

Every person I've ever met on the Internet, like, dating apps, like, they always turn out to be like, a little kooky.

每個我在網路上像交友軟體認識的人，他們都有點怪怪的。

Like, just like, it's just always a mess.

這總是一場混亂。

I think for me, like, I'm... I much prefer to just meet someone, like, out and about or like a friend of a friend.

我覺得對我來說，我比較喜歡跟人見面。就像出去認識或朋友的朋友。

Well, I mean, I would just meet people in events; I just go to interest groups.

我會在參加活動時認識人，我會去參加社團。

Like, let's say I wanna go (to), like, a real estate interest group.

像是我會想去房地產同行的社團。

I like meet cutes.

我喜歡認識可愛的人。

- Like, "Oh, hi." - "Oh, hey."

-像「哦，嗨。」-「哦，嘿。」

-"Oh, my God, you're kind of cute." - "So are you."

-「我的天啊，你真可愛。」-「你也是。」

Like, I like that; I like that.

我喜歡這種的。

Or, like, organic building of relationships, like, just natural, you know, meetings, that's it.

或是很自然地認識，慢慢建立關係這樣。
