The Mid Life Dating Files 2025

I try to manage my screen time as best as I can, especially since I use my phone for work and most everything I do. How much I use it also depends on who I’m around — I make it a point not to be rude or distracted when spending time with others. I don’t always have my phone glued to my hand, and I do my best to limit my time on it.

Sometimes, it would be nice not to feel so dependent on it, like so many people are these days. It’s honestly sad to see how often people are out with their partners or families but completely absorbed in their phones instead of each other. I really believe it comes down to personal choice — you have to set your own boundaries. Just don’t let your screen steal the love, joy, and moments that are right in front of you, because those moments will never come around again.
