People nowadays marry later in life, choose not to marry at all, seek partners after divorce, outlive spouses, relocate to new areas and even endure pandemics. This signifies that we are moving toward larger dating pools, something made possible through public personal advertising. This text details personal advertising in print and digital media, as well as online dating services, speed dating, the use of mobile dating apps and other topics. Interviews reveal the appeal and limitations of personal advertising for meeting people. This book offers a window into the development of trust and relationships, as well as the increasing role technology plays in shaping how people meet and mate in the modern world"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Personals $z United States $x History. 650 0 $a Online dating $z United States $x History. 650 0 $a Dating (Social customs) $z United States $x History. 650 0 $a Dating (Social customs) $z United States $v Case studies. 650 2 $a Courtship 650 6 $a Agences de rencontres. 650 6 $a Amours. 650 7 $a courtships. $2 aat 650 7 $a FAMILY & RELATIONSHIPS / Dating. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Dating services. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01199880 650 7 $a Dating (Social customs) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00888094 650 7 $a Interpersonal relations. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00977397 655 7 $a Case studies. $2 lcgft 941 $a 1 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20231021031957.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=C681353C6FD711EE93D6B80232ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b JIDInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
