Online dating has indeed become more superficial, especially with the advent of apps where the main interaction is limited to swipes and likes. First impressions are often based on photos only, leaving deep conversations on the back burner. People are starting to treat dating like a game – there is always a feeling that you can find someone “better”. This reduces the value of communication and makes finding something serious more difficult. However, this does not mean that online dating is useless – it all depends on the approach. If you are open and sincere, you can find interesting people and even build strong relationships.
