With a constant flood of new dating trends (hello ‘pocketing’, ‘ghosting’, and ‘cookie-jarring’!), it’s no wonder dating has gotten more complicated, especially as we get older. It’s no longer just about chemistry or dating for the sake of dating; now, you’re also considering how someone fits into your longterm plans. In fact, singles are being more cautious than ever, letting their future goals guide their dating choices. According to Bumble’s 2025 dating trends report, 95% of singles admit that worries about the future are impacting their dating life. And, thankfully, that has sparked a relationship trend – one that’s both healthy and necessary. Enter ‘future-proofing’, one of the top dating trends of this year.
