Dateable: Your insider's look into modern dating and relationships

In our last week before Season 15, we're talking fboy island and how we've changed our perspective on dating (from our episodes, silly, not fboy island!). We go back in memory lane through the many seasons talking about why you can't find 'The One', why maybe your type isn't your type, and how to persevere through it all on your quest for love.

The age old debate: who should pay on a first date? It's the battle of the modern and the traditional when it comes to modern dating etiquette in the initial stages of dating and what a "date" even means in today's world.
