Dear Abby: I’ve been thinking about it lately, and the dating pool is just not what it used to be. I haven’t felt a strong connection with someone in a long time. I’ve had a few good past relationships, but maybe it’s because I’ve exhausted my soulmate limit. How many do I get anyways? I hope I haven’t used up all my chances.

Yes, I know. Hook-up culture is a major deal to some people, especially those who are looking for a meaningful relationship only to be hit in the face with something casual. This bids the question: should we really be so quick to trap ourselves in the marriage bubble?
