The year was 2012 B.T. (Before Tinder). I was building a mobile dating app called "Find Your Lobster ," which was, to our knowledge, the first mobile app that leveraged Facebook to help you date your friends’ single friends.
People were skeptical. In those years, the general consensus was that no "desirable" (the accepted, politically correct version of "good-looking") people under the age of 30 would ever dream of using a dating app—especially one that made them sign in with Facebook. Why would they? They were good-looking!
