Dating in lockdown is definitely an interesting one. I mean you're not allowed to see your partner (if you live by yourself that is), some people can't stand their partner cause they are stuck with them 24/7, and some are super single and looking for love on the app. So does lockdown test our relationships or does it reveal how lonely we really are? Me and my friend Gianvito discuss ALL of this and what it's like to live as a single pringle in the middle of a pandemic. Watch and listen to our podcast here! Byeee!
