I guess when they said chivalry was dead, “they” weren’t lying. There’s no secret that we are definitely living in a microwavable society, and I guess dating is no exception to the rule. I remember when people were skeptical of online dating sites, now, you don’t need to go through the embarrassing steps of plugging in your height and weight, your occupation, and your turn offs to create an online dating profile, when you can just hop on Twitter and Instagram.
As I scrolled down my timeline I’ve noticed many celebrities are “hooking up” via social media, with just a few simple “likes”, maybe some heart eyed emoji under a few pics, and a quick slide in a DM, and BOOM you’re in a relationship or should I say a “lituation-ship”.
There has been plenty of celebrity couples who have built “lituation-ship” through Instagram and Twitter. For example, here are top 5 celeb couples who started their relationship via social media:

Dating has become too effortlessly for me, I don’t know about ya’ll but if someone was trying to pursue me, they gota do a whooooole lot more than just make me their #WCW. Quoting from our very own Monie Love, “dating has become like instant oatmeal, you just add a little hot water and stir three times.” I wish we could go back to the good old days when people met in person, and actually took their time in getting to know each other, or maybe that’s just me.
