Modern Dating Is Broken

so how do we find (and keep) love

A masterclass on what's actually happening underneath the cultural moment, why almost everyone is finding this hard, and what we can actually do about it.

Modern Dating Is Broken: Section 2: The Opening

Something is breaking, and most of us can feel it.

Marriage rates are at historic lows. More people are single than ever. Birth rates are collapsing across the world. Men and women are more frustrated with each other than at any point in modern memory.

And almost every conversation about it turns into a fight about whose fault it is.

It's nobody's fault. And it's everybody's problem.

This isn't a class about who's right or wrong. There isn't a clear right or wrong here, and the longer we pretend there is, the longer we stay stuck.

This is a class about what's actually happening underneath this moment. Told through evolutionary psychology, biology, real studies and data, history, and a spiritual lens for what this moment is asking of us as a species.

If you've felt confused by modern dating, if the rules seem to have changed and nobody told you, if you've felt unseen in conversations that should have made you feel less alone, this is for you.

This is the conversation we should have been having all along.

Modern Dating Is Broken — Section 3: What You'll Leave With
The Outcomes

What you'll leave with

This isn't a 90-minute complaint about dating. We're going to look at the full picture, then move into what to actually do with it.

01

A real understanding of what's happening

drawn from evolutionary psychology, biology, history, and current data. Real studies. Not Instagram opinions.

02

A spiritual lens

on what this moment is asking of us, individually and as a species.

03

Five reframes about modern love

that almost nobody is saying out loud.

04

Real actions you can take

in your dating life and relationships, starting the day after the class.

05

Language and frameworks

for having these conversations with the people in your life without it turning into another fight.

06

Compassion

for yourself and for the other side of an experience almost everybody is in, and almost nobody feels seen inside of.

Modern Dating Is Broken: Section 4: The Arc of the Event
The Journey

The arc of the event

Roughly 90 minutes of teaching. One continuous conversation, not a series of disconnected lessons.

I

The Economic Shift That Changed Everything

What partnership used to be built on, and what happened in the last 70 years that broke the foundation underneath us.

II

The Attraction Paradox

Why women want one thing and feel pulled toward another. Why this is biology, conditioning, or both, and why it doesn't switch off in a generation.

III

What's Happening to Men

The side of this story that gets almost no cultural sympathy. The data, the consequences, and what we owe each other inside of it.

IV

The Numbers That Should Worry Everyone

Marriage, birth rates, happiness, involuntary childlessness, partisan polarization. Sobering. Seen clearly.

V

Five Things Almost Nobody Is Saying

The reframes that change how the whole picture looks. Including a spiritual lens on what this moment is actually asking of us.

VI

We've Seen This Before

What history tells us about every wealthy civilization that arrived here before us, and what it tells us about the road ahead.

VII

What We Actually Do With This

Practical, embodied, real. How to live differently inside of this moment. How to date differently. How to love differently. And how to talk about all of this with the people in your life.

About Adam

Adam Roa is a poet, speaker, and author whose work centers on love, vulnerability, and the search for what's real. His viral spoken-word piece You Are Who You've Been Looking For has been viewed more than 250 million times. His debut book, Crazy Love, releases this season.

He's spent the last 15 years writing through the questions this masterclass asks. Across breakups, marriages he almost made and almost ruined, friendships, family, and the long road back to himself.

He's also spent those years studying this from every angle he could find. Evolutionary psychology. Spirituality. Stoicism. Gene Keys. Real data. Real conversations. This class is a window into that work.

This is part of something bigger

This masterclass is a doorway, not a destination. It opens a conversation that Crazy Love (Adam's debut book, releasing this season) goes deeper into. After the book launches, a small group will move into the Crazy Love Book Club, a 4-week experience where we go from understanding to actually living differently inside of all of this.

Everyone who attends this masterclass will be the first to hear when those next steps open. No pressure to take them. Just an open door if you want it.

My Word

An invitation

If something in you has been hungry for a conversation about love that isn't a fight, that isn't another hot take, that doesn't ask you to pick a side, this is that conversation.

With love,

Modern Dating Is Broken: Section 9: FAQ
Questions & Answers

A few honest questions

You'll leave with both. The first part of the class is an honest look at what's actually happening and why. The second part is what to do with that understanding. Real actions. Real language. Real ways to navigate this in your own life and in your conversations with other people.

Not in the usual sense. It's a class about why dating feels the way it does and what's underneath the cultural moment we're in. There are practical takeaways, but this is closer to a teaching than a tactical playbook.

Both. The class names what's happening on both sides of the dating dynamic. The goal is for everyone in the room to leave with more clarity, more compassion, and more language for talking to each other.

No. Show up curious. That's enough.

Most of what we'll cover applies to anyone in or thinking about partnership. The dynamics underneath dating don't disappear once you're committed. They just take new shapes.

No refunds.

I'll mention what I have coming up, but this is not an event intended to sell you anything directly.
