Tinder and Bumble are global giants as a result of the breakthrough numbers that have joined it since 2020, and love at first sight…or text is very much a possibility. Love has now truly crossed all distances and connects people across cities and countries. All it takes is the spark, and online dating simply runs with it connecting you to people with shared interests, tastes, and goals. We have to say that we particularly enjoy how easy it has become without the hassle or the rush or well, the effort, that meeting someone in person demands.
