Content creator Sean Andrew Kibaki opened up about his experience with online dating and the unexpected reason behind shaving his signature dreadlocks.
Sean Andrew shared his foray into online dating, revealing that he initially joined the platforms due to peer pressure.
Like many adults, he succumbed to the influence of friends, but he soon realized that the interactions on these dating apps were far from fulfilling.
He found the digital connections to be shallow and unsatisfactory.
"They are rubbish interactions, you never leave the app so why are you making unworthy connections?
"We are humans; we communicate in person; there's no business about being locked in these electronic devices. When you are connecting with someone, you need face-to-face connections," he told Eve Mungai.

For Sean, building meaningful relationships goes beyond the digital realm, and he firmly believes that real bonds are nurtured through personal, in-person interactions.
"I am not actively searching, and I am just myself. I am looking for a decent partner with whom we can build a legacy together," he added, clarifying that he is content with his current state of being alone and in no rush to find a partner.
