Delete the dating apps and let us play matchmaker.
Unfortunately, the Free Press dating app—working name UnHinged—isn’t quite ready yet, but we couldn’t let that stop us from playing Cupid this Valentine’s Day. Instead, we’re taking an old-school approach to matchmaking.
If you’re a Free Presser looking for love, send an email to cupid@thefp.com that includes your name, age, hometown, and what you’re looking for. For a little Free Press twist on the usual lonely hearts ad, we also want you to tell us about a recent time you changed your mind—and why. Also let your suitors know the best way to reach out to you, whether by email, X, Signal, or carrier pigeon.
We’ll include the best entries in a forthcoming morning email.

I wanted to comment on the recent Honestly podcast where Suzy is talking about love and relationships. As a blue collar guy that wears cargo pants on a daily basses for work I was somewhat triggered to hear her and the other podcaster demean and shit on people like that. I was happy to hear that Suzy is letting Bari pick out who she is currently dating and would ask that Bari sent her up with a guy that wears cargo pants for a living.
The name is promising - Unhinged!
