12 Key Takeaways for Online Dating, and What That Means For You

We’re living in a swipe right, swipe left world. Online dating sites have existed since even before Match.com became a thing in the mid 1990s. But now? New dating apps aren’t just popping up all the time, they’ve gotten niche-y with it too! In addition to the mainstream ones, you can find dating sites based on a religion, others for farmers and other rural area dwellers, etc. Whatever demographic you can think of, a dating app probably exists for it by now. Recently, Pew Research Center did a study on online dating in the U.S. that I found interesting and want to share with you. In it, they discovered 12 key takeaways, some of which aren’t so surprising while others definitely caught me off guard. I won’t talk about all 12 due to length of time. But in this episode of the Love Life Connection podcast, you’ll learn six of the key findings Pew discovered about online dating in the U.S. and what they might mean for you and your love life.
