My Date My Story: True Stories of Modern Dating, Sex, and Heartbreak

by Jesse Stern

Book Overview

The stories, questions, and aftermath of relationships, from real people around the world.

Romance is hard work. It can also be exhilarating, amusing, weird, crazy, and simply exhausting. We've all had our share of awkward and uncomfortable dates (and some amazing ones) as well as mystifying and confusing break-ups.

My Date My Story tells the story of modern day romance through the stories of those who are experiencing it first-hand.

Born out of a storytelling project that has more than 140,000 followers, thousands of stories have poured in from all over the world. The submissions cover every aspect of dating--crushes, heartbreak, uncertainty, success, humor, and a never-ending array of bizarre situations.

Beyond the stories, the book helps to shed light on not only what is happening, but also why. Smartphones and dating apps are playing and enormous role in changing the way we meet, date, and interact with one another. Technology has forced people to think differently and expect the unexpected anytime they step out for a date.

My Date My Story combines stories, questions, and analysis to tell the story of what dating is really like today.
