    ⓘ Dogs don't have thumbs Retweeted Steve Stewart-Williams

    important to note that the entire rise in purple curve "we met in bar or restaurant" after 2000 AD is ACTUALLY "we met online and first date was at a bar or restaurant, but ashamed to admit that" so red curve is actually higher than it seemshttps://twitter.com/SteveStuWill/status/1283793521661685763 …

        I wonder what % of people “who met online” connected on social media due to mutual friends. I definitely know a few couples like that

        I'd like to see that graphed against relationship length.

        i would wager the purple line has trended down from pre-app days too. i met my gf in a bar, but i am the rare exception in my group of friends. it is either through friends or apps that is 90% today

        I’m really shocked at how few people met their spouse in college, which is how my husband and I met. I thought this was much more common than it apparently is.

        I know quite a few people now that have long term happy relationships that started through either dating apps or just generally online I don't think as of 2020 there's any shame in that anymore

        Wouldn't that predict a decline in more recent years as the stigma diminishes?
