The Antidote to Dating Boredom

The Antidote to Dating Boredom

Love is an emotional process – something that is felt in the body and the heart, not in the mind. Modern dating has become more robotic, than romantic. We log into dating apps and essentially “shop” for our ideal life partner based on a checklist.

We believe that love is a feeling, not a formula. Closer events aim to re-humanize dating by bringing a sense of openness, compassion and joy to the process of human connection.
