Chances are, that if you have been single in the last decade, you've probably tried a dating app. Well me... I've tried all of them. I started on my laptop with the likes of POF, Match, and Eharmony. And then came the great and mighty tinder, from there it was the abyss of bumble, happn, hinge, and every other dating app imaginable. I have been swiping for years, people have been swiping on me for years. I got a notification from tinder that I had gotten over 25000 'swipes right' yet I am still single? Some might say I am picky, some might say I am delusional, some might say I have standards.... however the doctor speculates that there is a lot more to online dating than just swiping right or left.

In this two-part series, we discuss the importance of selecting your profile pictures, what can be eye catching, and what can be seriously off puting. How language and filling out your bio has an impact. The impact of spelling and grammar. We even get into our own dating profiles and read them out verbatum. There is so much to be said for those seeking a relationship vs those seeking a hook up. And then the complications of gender come into play as well.

So join the doc and myself for a journey through online dating, it's 1.5 hours of swiping and we will more than likely convince you to swipe right on us in 2021.... and well, if not us, our podcast!
