Whether you choose to accept it or not, it's a fact that dating apps have taken over the younger generation by storm. They make for an easy and quick way to have access to millions of people. While their popularity seems to only be increasing with time, a lot of people still believe in meeting their partners the old school way. Though dating apps can be really helpful for people who are busy and don't get to go out much, they can prove to be quite tiresome for others.
22-year-old Pritha Ghosh, an engineering student at Jadavpur University, Kolkata, says, “Some of my friends have tried an infamous dating app, and have gone on a few first and only dates. They found people very flaky on the apps. I prefer meeting future dates in person, without the help of an app,” Pritha says. Sourav Chatterjee, 28, says, “There’s no better way to gauge attraction and chemistry than to be physically present with someone.”
Aparna Sengupta, a Kolkata based psychologist says that it is possible to meet people online and have them turn into potential partners, but meeting someone in person can always yield better results. So, are you willing to try dating apps or are will you find your partner the old-school way?
