Dating Apps & Divorce Rate
According to WSJ, the rate of marital breakups for respondents who met their spouse online was 25%, which is evidently lower than for those who met offline. (Reference: The Wallstreet Journal: Dating Apps Are Making Marriages Stronger).
Match-Making Algorithms
Dating-site questionnaires and match-making algorithms could be helpful in helping people find a more suitable partner. Online daters who marry are less likely to break down and are shown with slightly higher marital satisfaction rates than those of couples who met offline, according to a 2013 study published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. The overall U.S. divorce rate is around 40% to 50%.Of 19,131 couples who met online and got married, only around 7% were either separated or divorced.
Many lovers break up due to poor communication skills. Those who are able to keep a long-distance relationship through online dating might communicate more and do better.I would say, online dating might encourage deep communication and foster stronger connections that both parties might focus more on compatibility, beliefs, life values and expectations in a relationship than sexual desires. Online dating encourages people to initiate more conversations and discussions.
According to The Knot 2019 Jewelry and Engagement study, 22% of couples meet online and end up getting engaged. Tinder, the dating app behemoth, is responsible for matching 30% of all engaged couples who met online.
Limited Social Circle & The Rise of Online Dating
The invention and popularity of online dating apps have been blamed for fueling hook-up culture. However, dating app may not be so terrible as the mass media suppose. It is said that more than one-third of marriages begin online. Online dating is a popular way to meet partners for heterosexual couples and the most popular channel for people to search for their homosexual partners by far. Thanks to dating apps, interracial partnerships increase as well. In the past, people relied on real-life social networks to select their mates. Most people have a quite limited social circle. Only if we open our dating pool to strangers, we earn the chance to meet more suitable mates.
Advice
What’s your motive of getting married? Don’t get married to solve your relationship problems. Don’t’ get married because of your age. Don’t get married because of the pressure from peers and relatives. Romance dwindles and sexual desire doesn’t last. Those who build a strong relationship tend to use the terms of “we” and “us.”
