THE DATING COLLEGE · CONNECTION & CHEMISTRY
The last time you dated, you called a landline and spoke to their mother.
Now there are profiles, read receipts, and people who say “let’s see where this goes” while refusing to choose a café. Find your feet with warm, practical lessons for dating after divorce, separation, or a long relationship. Learn to introduce the person you are now, recognize mutual interest, and make room for connection without abandoning your judgment—or your entire calendar.
For adults returning after divorce, separation, or a long relationship. Start free after campus sign-in and adult confirmation. One payment. No subscription. Personal enrollment only; gifts are not available for this course.
