What it Looked Like to Love Somebody in the 1970s
Loving someone today can be done from the comfort of your own home. But in the seventies, loving couples went out frequently to have fun, enjoy some music, eat their favorite food, watch a sporting event, or go to the movies. No Netflix and chill.
With so many hairstyles and fashion trends, no two couples looked the same, but they were all ready for the dance floor with the same smiles and loving eyes.
Loving someone in the' 70s meant choosing the love of your life right there and then, forever. Like you were floating, or at least that's what the hippie dude told me.
Luckily, many people took pictures of these loving moments in the seventies, so here's what it looked like to love somebody in the 1970s.
Classic 70s couple
This is what a loving couple looked like in the 70s, and you knew this was gonna last.
Love in the woods
Love is not caring about your clothes getting dirty.
Dating couple
Making weird photos was only possible when you knew you were going to have grandkids to show them to.
Photo Shoot
If you had a photo shoot with your significant other, you won.
70s overload
This looks like the cover picture for a book called “What the 70s were about” or something like that.
Muscle Car wins
If one of them had a car, they had to include it in the picture.

Another one of those pictures that just screams 70s.
Posing
Outfits like that are hard to come by today.
Watching a Race
If you didn't have a car, you could always go to a racing event to take pictures with them.

People dressed sharply because they never knew when someone could take a picture.
Matching Outfits
Matching outfits were everywhere.
Matching colors
But if you didn't want to match, you could match colors to look even cooler.
No need to match
But there was no need to match when you found the love of your life.

Bright outfits for the most important night of them all.
The Look
If she gave you that look, you knew you were home.
