DATING AND SEXUAL RELATIONSHIPS

Swipe right here, swipe left there. Maybe a couple more swipe rights and a hope that you’ll match with someone. When you do, it’s a few days of awkward chatting until you meet up. Whether you swipe for a relationship or for a hookup, the dating scene at face value is the same: hoping for a match that you can get on with.

There is a difference in hooking-up and dating culture. With the introduction of dating apps, the game for both has changed. Students have different goals for each and have different ideas on how dating works.
