Addiction to Hook-up and Dating Apps

Join us as we take a deep dive into the impact of dating apps on both our personal lives and the gay community at large. We get candid about how these apps have shaped our experience of dating and relating with other guys. From mindless swiping and ghosting to feeling used and disconnected, we explore the darker side of app culture while offering practical tips to create healthier, more positive experiences on dating apps.

  • The personal toll of app addiction

  • How have the apps changed the gay community– for better or worse?
  • Tips to maintain a positive relationship with dating apps.
  • How to know when it’s time to take a break
