Modern Dating: A Safe, Fun, and Practical Approach

Maybe you're getting back into the dating game after a long break, or maybe dating has always seemed tricky - this class will give you the knowledge and tools to dive in!

These days, everyone has heard of online dating, even if they've never tried it. For a variety of reasons, online dating sites are increasingly the way people meet each other. With everyone working more and more, meeting people the old fashioned way, through friends or social gatherings, isn't always practical.

So what are the considerations when meeting someone online? We'll talk about how to write a compelling profile and present yourself in a flattering (and honest!) way, as well as ways to stay safe when meeting someone for the first, (or second, or third,) time. You'll also learn current information about STIs, ways to protect yourself, and communication skills for bringing up the conversation with potential partners.

This class will also include a brief overview of different relationship styles, such as open relationships, polyamory, and swinging, so that you can have the information you need to decide what you're looking for, and you'll know what other people mean if they say that's what they're into.

By the end of this class there will be nothing stopping you from creating an awesome profile and going out to meet new people!

As always, there will be time for Q&A, and all genders and orientations are welcome.
