Tinder and Bumble aren't anything new. Decades ago, we had videocassette dating services. And as early as the 1700s, lonely bachelors searched for wives through printed ads. However, by the looks of it, today's singles would've had a hard time getting a match even in the old days.
Internet personality Aubry Andrews recently tweeted a screenshot of a guy's online dating profile. The self-described open-minded fellow had 14 demands for women, many of which were contradicting each other. For example, his perfect candidate must make at least $100K but at the same be available 6 days a week.

All of this has sparked a broader debate about the impact of online dating on romantic relationships in America.

But others offer a less flattering narrative about online dating – ranging from concerns about scams or harassment to the belief that these platforms facilitate superficial relationships rather than meaningful ones.
I guess you just never know who you are going to match with!
