Whatever happened to good, old-fashioned, dating? No, not "Netflix and chill." Definitely not a hook-up with your Tinder match, either. What happened to the "I'll pick you up at six," followed by meeting the intimidating father? What happened to the magical kiss after the drive-in movie? Or the giggles at the top of the Ferris wheel?

I think we can all agree that relationships are not valued like they used to be. Modern society has brought a casual, carefree sense to dating.

Hook-up culture is truly killing romance.

Imagine this: Your granddaughter asks you how you and grandpa met, expecting the world's greatest love story from two old lovebirds. To her dismay, your reply is "He swiped right on Tinder, and it all went from there." How romantic, right?

What happened to bumping into a handsome boy at the grocery store? Or the cutie in biology finally asking you out? Do we really want these memorable experiences being replaced by Instagram likes and Tinder swipes?

Girls, if you're measuring how much he values you by how fast he texts you back, you're doing it wrong. Your goal shouldn't be to be someone's "Woman Crush Wednesday." Don't you want to be someone's crush every day?

Let me also mention that a serious relationship is worth waiting for. I'd like to give a friendly reminder that if you're seeking a relationship, you won't find one worth while. Although it's been endlessly preached, the statement "you'll find someone when you least expect it" holds so much truth. In the meantime, focus on yourself! Dance in your underwear, go out with your girlfriends, and simply have fun being you and building you. Stop wasting your time on Tinder. Just wait for your prince charming to show up at your doorstep with roses — now, that'll be a story worth telling.

Nonetheless, let's make dating what it's meant to be. Truly falling for someone — falling in love — is quite possibly the greatest feeling ever produced by hormones. We are slowly weeding out some of the best parts about being human — loving and being loved. Let's forget about Snapchat stalking and Tinder swipes and bring back good, old-fashioned dating.
