Young people pursuing romantic partners are forgoing traditional first dates and instead meeting virtually online due to the rising costs of social outings, according to reports.
Business Insider notes the dating app Wingman claims, “65% of users aged 18-27 choose to video call as a first date instead of meeting up.”
The practice, which was common during the COVID pandemic, is making a resurgence as Gen Z-ers realize it’s becoming costly to fork out dough for first dates, especially if there’s no connection between persons.
