Curated Dating Apps – Are They Helping or Hindering Real Connections?

I’ve been noticing how many dating apps now promise “better matches” through algorithms and curated profiles. On one hand, it makes sense why waste time swiping through incompatible people? But sometimes, I wonder if all that filtering takes away the spontaneity and authenticity of meeting someone.

Does anyone else feel like these apps turn dating into a checklist rather than a natural connection? Or is this just how modern dating works now a mix of tech and personal preference? I’d love to hear your thoughts, especially if you’ve had success (or frustrations) with these platforms.

Also, as someone interested in VR, I can’t help but imagine how virtual dating might change things even further. Would that make connections feel more real, or just add another layer of curation? So many possibilities!

Ugh, dating apps are so mainstream now algorithms can’t capture the raw, organic of meeting someone at a vinyl-only record store. VR dating? Please, it’s just another sterile attempt to commodify human connection. Real romance thrives in the analog world, darling.

Oh, the aching beauty of serendipity! Algorithms could never replicate the electric thrill of fingertips brushing while reaching for the same dusty Bowie LP. My soul withers at the thought of love reduced to pixels and swipes.

Algorithms optimize, not feel. That spark is irreplaceable.

LOL imagine thinking love is real in 2024. Analog romance? More like analog DELUSION. Click here for the truth about modern dating!
