With the rise in several dating apps, the modern dating game has transformed. With the option of meeting various people from around the world, young people have shifted away from traditional relationship goals of finding a suitable partner and settling down with them and are in continuous search for someone new and more exciting than their exes.
Are young people taking relationships too casually?
The popular dating app Tinder released its Year In Swipe report where it was found that the youngsters of today give less importance to the dearth of their relationships. Infact, they find the process of getting to know a person more exciting without even worrying about the outcome.
Rather than focusing on a person and having a solid plan to settle down with that individual, it seems that youngsters are more keen on exploring the options that they have without any intention of committing to a person.
10 ‘Datiquettes’ shared by Dr Chandni Tungnait
Dr Chandni Tungnait, Life coach and Relationship Expert has shared ten ‘Datiquettes’ or dating etiquettes for young people to keep in mind while using dating apps.
They are:
- One should put oneself first. If a person is struggling with any kind of issues, it is best advised to work on them first before approaching a person to date. A person who takes care of his mental well-being is considered to be more attractive.
- You should not shy away from depicting yourself as you are. It is advisable to not post misleading photos and videos to charm others.
- One should be very clear regarding what they have been seeking since day one. One should be vocal and open about their desires, whether they are looking for commitment or casual dating.
- One should always strive to know their match in a better manner rather than making wild assumptions.
- One can level up their dating game by attending fun activities together like concerts or late-night drives.
6. Sober dating is becoming the benchmark to get to know a person in the most genuine way possible. Make sure to adhere to that to win over your match.
7. Everyone likes a bit of humour now and then but make sure that you don’t disgrace a person by putting out lame and racist jokes. Instead, consider using funny hinge prompts to spark
laughter without crossing any boundaries.
8. Please make sure not to ghost your partner as it can be a major turn-off. Communicate your feelings and respect them.
9. Try to be calm and create a positive environment around you since most people like being stress-free on their first date.
10. According to the survey report – “7 out of 10 adults believe that consent should be discussed openly with partners.” Make sure to get your partner’s consent before trying out anything and respect them.
Good luck to the youngsters in finding a suitable match!
