To all the Single Souls…

To all my Single Souls out there,
Dating is difficult. I know this because I am right there with you – In the trenches, as it were. Truly, there is happiness and sorrow that can be found in EVERY phase of life, but being single certainly has its unique challenges. 
When we created the Healthy Humans Project, we dreamed for it to be a place where ALL individuals and families could turn to learn and develop skills that will help them find wellness – no matter what phase of life they are in. 
As a single individual working on this project, however, I recognized a hole in our topics that felt important to address. What does the research say about singleness and dating, I wondered? It’s about time we figured that out! This is why we are excited to announce that we have created the “Single Souls” subcategory – Here you will be able to find articles about relationships that are geared toward those of us in the singlehood.
PLEASE DON’T FORGET that one of the main goals of Healthy Humans Project is that ALL might find ways to relate with each article, and the “Single Souls” articles will be no different. The hope is that while these are written directly for single individuals, there can be helpful nuggets found for everyone in each one. 
Because this is so new, we really want your feedback about what YOU want to learn on the topics of dating/singleness. What questions do you have? What unique challenges did you face or are you currently facing as a single individual? 
We need your input. 
Please contact us on the “Contact Us” form, through our post on instagram or facebook, or in our direct messages. Friday, August 9, 2019, we will choose THREE RANDOM INDIVIDUALS who have given input to reward with a $10 gift card of your choice.
Get excited about what’s to come! And as always, thank you for showing up and being a part of this community.
Love,
Sydney Tittle & The HHP Team

The OG Tinder Profile
The history of “online dating” is fascinating! Sources say that the first known “personal ad” was published in a British agricultural journal in 1685.

“A Gentleman about 30 years of age” who “would willingly match himself to some good young gentlewoman…” 
Can you imagine THAT on a tinder profile? Probably not. Hundreds of years have passed. Some things remain the same, but so much is different. Not only has the platform changed, but attitudes, exposure, opportunity, and purpose have as well. Just in the last 10 years, there seems to have been a complete cultural shift in the dating world. Some main contributors to this could be the birth of instagram, dating apps, and widespread use of smartphones. Humans have LEVELED UP on their mate selection tactics.
