FORBES - In 2024, dating trends continue to evolve. A Pew Research Center survey shows that while dating has become harder since the COVID-19 pandemic, the interest in finding a serious partner remains unchanged. People are now marrying later in life and facing mental health challenges related to online dating. Surveys indicate that older adults find significant success on dating apps, and there's a strong preference for emotional maturity over physical appearance in dating choices. Additionally, economic pressures have led to more budget-conscious dating behaviors. Overall, the complex relationship between dating apps and mental health, including issues like loneliness and psychological distress, highlights the evolving challenges and priorities in the modern dating landscape.
