What, no flowers on the first date? Thank you Emily Post! 😂

Guess what, that was true 50 years ago.

What was also true was the importance of the telephone. A real telephone. Calling a girl was an important indicator of interest and also showed some emotional intelligence (what little we young men were capable of). Now it’s seen as somewhat of an annoyance. Too time consuming, as you say. I think that’s a problem.
