    As opposed to all of the [dating people you have connections with] that happens all the time these days?

      If you’re trying to say something like “you have connections, unlike all of the dating people”: that is not what I said. Everybody has at least some connections; it’s all about how you use them to know more people.

      If you mean something else, please explain - I’m genuinely struggling to parse your sentence.

        That’s fair it’s a confusing sentence. My point is that in the modern era more people date people they don’t know on tingerbee vs people they know, so not having a connection isn’t disqualifying.

        I added brackets to make the noun clearer.
