Logan Ury, Director of Relationship Science for the dating app Hinge and author of "How to Not Die Alone" discusses the evolution of dating apps and their use during COVID-19 - a period during which most of us have felt more alone than ever.
She talks about how her background in behavioral psychology has helped her use data-driven evidence in her research of online dating and finding the key to a happy relationship.
She also gives us her take on the three common dating personas that people embody when looking for their "ideal" relationship: the romanticizer, the maximizer, and the hesitator. Logan and Patrick discuss how FOBO - or the "Fear of a Better Option" - can play a big role in how some people approach dating and how FOBO can also lead individuals down a never-ending search for that "perfect match."
Finally, Logan provides her take on how she thinks that dating will evolve in the future - from more video dating via apps to increased gender fluidity and types of dating among Gen Z daters.
