Dating app Tinder shares a love trend that was a hit among young people during the year
In the scenario of romantic connections, a unique change in the preferences of young Brazilians marked the year 2024.
According to Tinder's annual retrospective, open relationships were the type of relationship most sought after by users of the app throughout the year.
Remembering that an open relationship is a form of connection where the couple agrees to be involved with other people.
Data that marks Tinder in 2024
While some couples allow complete freedom in outside relationships, others prefer to establish specific rules, such as limiting interaction to kissing.
In addition to open relationships, Tinder's survey highlighted other popular forms of connection. One example is hookups, where the relationship is more casual and focused on dating. Chatters, on the other hand, limit themselves to exchanging messages and conversations without commitment.
The trends were identified based on data collected by Tinder between January 1 and October 1, 2024.
Furthermore, the information analyzed users' biographies, revealing the most sought-after types of relationships and other curious aspects about how people presented themselves on the platform.
Among the highlights, the app revealed the most used words in bios, in addition to exploring the most cited love languages and preferred communication styles. Furthermore, in 2024, there was also an increase in clarity about intentions: the “Looking for” function appeared a lot in profiles.
A mirror of modern times?
In this way, the rise in interest in open relationships may be a mirror of the cultural and social changes that continue to shape the future.
In an era where individuality and transparency are increasingly valued, people seek relationships that respect their desires and limits, promoting a space to explore new forms of connection.
Thus, Tinder consolidates itself as a platform that facilitates encounters and is attentive to changes in the ways of loving and relating.
Whether it's an open relationship, a fling or just a conversationalist, 2024 has shown that the most important thing is clarity about what you're looking for, as well as the willingness to find someone who is aligned with those goals.
