The dating app Bumble is shown on a smartphone in New York. Plenty of happy couples can trace their meet-cute moment to an online dating app. But many others find the never-ending process of likes, swipes, taps and awkward DMs that go nowhere to be exhausting.
That was the case for Marilyn Espitia, a year-old freelance photo editor and photographer in California who first ventured into online dating in college, when she met her former partner and now father of her child on OkCupid.
Today she is single, and has been for about three years. Kathryn Coduto, an assistant professor of media science at Boston University who has been studying online dating since , says dating app burnout is probably as old as the apps themselves, noting that people had experienced fatigue with earlier desktop-dominant platforms like eHarmony or Match.
Research shows usage has remained relatively stable over recent years. Pew Research Center said that three out of 10 US adults reported ever using an online dating site or app as of July β identical to the share found in October , months before Covid impacted much of daily life, including dating habits. While there was some uptick in new user downloads at the start of the pandemic, Coduto's research found more of a spike in usage from those who already had dating apps and were spending more time on them during lockdowns.
But those same lockdowns also limited in-person interactions, and the ripple effects are still being felt today. While she's still giving platforms like Tinder, Hinge and OkCupid a try, Stavros notes she's experienced a recent cycle of matches that don't go far.
