Blind date: an absurd drama

In this fast-paced, high-pressure modern society, blind dating seems to have become a social model that has become a convention, as if it is a necessary path to the palace of marriage. People no longer look for partners through free love as in the past, but choose a more "efficient" and "safer" way - blind dating. This model has not only changed the traditional concept of marriage and love, but also formed a unique cultural phenomenon invisibly, allowing people to taste the various aspects of life in laughter and tears.

As the name suggests, blind dating is to let people in need get to know each other through introductions from family, relatives, friends and other channels, in order to achieve the purpose of marriage. The original intention of this method is undoubtedly good, it aims to help young people who are lost in the vast sea of ​​people find a suitable partner. However, with the changes of the times, blind dating has gradually evolved into an absurd drama, in which everyone plays a different role and interprets a variety of stories.

In this drama, parents are undoubtedly one of the most important characters. Holding an invisible ruler, they strictly measure and evaluate every potential "future son-in-law" or "future daughter-in-law". These rulers include not only external conditions such as height, weight, and appearance, but also internal qualities such as education, work, and income. Parents seem to be participating in a fierce talent show, trying to select the best one from many candidates to ensure that their children can find a "well-matched" partner.

In this context, the blind date process is often full of drama and irony. On the one hand, parents will run around for their children's happiness, participate in various blind date activities, and communicate with different matchmakers; on the other hand, they will strictly control their children during the blind date process, fearing that their children will miss any "perfect" opportunity. This contradictory psychology makes the blind date process full of embarrassment and jokes, and also makes people deeply question this model.

In this drama, young people have become the most helpless participants. They are often driven by their parents' expectations and pressure to participate in this absurd blind date game. They may meet all kinds of people, some of whom may make their hearts beat, while others may make them feel bored. However, no matter how they feel about the blind date, they must remain polite and calm, because this is not only a respect for the other party, but also a respect for the parents and the introducer.

What is even more ironic is that some unexpected situations often occur during blind dates. For example, some people may meet their "ex" or some people who have similar experiences with themselves during blind dates. This situation not only makes blind dates awkward and interesting, but also makes people start to think about the rationality and necessity of the blind date model.

In addition to parents and young people, introducers are also indispensable characters in the drama of blind dates. They are usually elders or friends with rich experience and extensive connections, who are responsible for matchmaking for young people. The level and quality of introducers vary. Some people will sincerely care about the young people, while others just want to satisfy their vanity or gain benefits. Their existence makes the blind date process more complicated and changeable, and also increases the uncertainty of the blind date results.

During blind dates, people often encounter some ridiculous scenes and conversations. For example, some parents will directly ask about the other party's financial situation and family background during blind dates, as if these factors are the only criteria for determining whether two people can be happy. Some young people will encounter some strange questions and tests during blind dates, such as "How much do you earn a month?" "When do you plan to buy a house?" and so on. These questions not only make blind dates awkward and boring, but also make people start to think about the true meaning of the blind date model.

What is even more ironic is that despite the absurdity and irony of the blind date process, people still seem to enjoy it. Parents run around for the happiness of their children, young people keep trying to find true love, and matchmakers go around to meet their own needs. Everyone plays their own role and tells their own story on this absurd stage.

Of course, we cannot deny the positive effects of blind dating. It does provide some young people with an opportunity to meet new friends and expand their interpersonal relationships, and it also allows some people to find their other half in the vast sea of ​​people. However, this cannot cover up the various problems and drawbacks that exist in the blind dating process.

The fundamental reason why blind dating has become an absurd drama is that people have excessive expectations and pressure on marriage and family. In modern society, marriage and family are given too many responsibilities and meanings, which makes people feel tremendous pressure in the process of pursuing happiness. This pressure not only makes people anxious and uneasy, but also makes people lose their rational thinking and judgment on marriage and family.

In addition, the blind date model itself has certain problems. It overemphasizes external conditions and family background, while ignoring people's internal needs and emotional needs. This makes people often only pay attention to the other person's appearance and background during the blind date process, while ignoring the other person's personality and inner world. This one-sided way of understanding not only makes it difficult for people to find true love, but also makes people fall into endless confusion and bewilderment.

In order to get rid of the absurdity and irony brought by blind dating, we need to re-examine our views on marriage and family. We need to understand that marriage and family are not the whole of life, nor are they the only standard of happiness. We need to learn to respect our inner needs and emotional needs, and not be bound by external conditions and pressures.

At the same time, we also need to reflect on and improve the blind date model. We can try to break the traditional blind date model and introduce more free love elements, so that people can find their other half in a more relaxed and free atmosphere. We can also promote more open and inclusive marriage and love concepts, so that people can feel more freedom and happiness in the process of pursuing happiness.

In short, the absurd drama of blind dating has shown us people's excessive expectations and pressures on marriage and family, and has also made us realize the problems and drawbacks of the blind dating model itself. We need to get rid of the absurdity and irony brought about by this drama by re-examining our own concepts and improving the blind dating model, so that true happiness can return.
