“I can always remove someone from my socials by blocking but if someone has my number that feels like we’re closer - if you have my number we pretty much have to know each other in real life” (even still, the odds aren’t totally in anyone’s favor for landing a date via app).īut more often, people are asking each other for their social media handles, particularly Instagram, which affords a 50/50 chance these matches will be lost to the strange, dreaded lurking “orbit,” wasting away in a purgatory of thirst-trap replies, sending messages that read “we should meet up sometime” without ever closing the deal. “A number feels more intimate than a social,” a friend of mine put it over text. If my own experience and the stories friends have passed along are any indication, chances are slightly higher a date is likely on the horizon if numbers are exchanged.
And therein lies the question: what do we ask for? But, barring the existential crisis Tinder, Hinge, Bumble and the like tend to induce, at some point in a conversation there comes the inevitable exchange of off-app contact information. The age-old dance of dating-app small talk can be smooth and coordinated but is more often a stunted, awkward exchange that leaves all involved wondering whether we actually hacked dating with such godforsaken apps or maybe just broke it forever. I know this time has come because I recently woke up to four messages from four past potential flames asking how I’d been doing lately. The last few sunny, warm days of Memorial Day weekend are signaling a shift, however, to the return of the Horny Time - which can only mean the re-downloading of all the dating apps that were hastily deleted during the dark and dreary months between the end of the holidays and the first day above 60 degrees. It is that perfect time of year again: right when spring is hitting its sweet spot and summer is on the horizon.
