Cuffing season is here, but how has it changed because of Covid-19?

It’s well underway. The time of year when singles try and find a partner to couple up with over the winter months, known as Cuffing Season.

It might sound a bit cheesy, but it’s really a thing and Covid-19 has made people keener than ever to find their winter partner. Lockdown caused single people all over the world to consider their relationship status, and with cases climbing again, it’s no wonder cuffing season is a tempting time for so many of us.

But if you’re not sure where to start, the obvious answer is dating apps, and at the moment they’re more popular than ever before. But despite knowing apps are the easiest way to meet someone new, why do people still ghost others or not take dating seriously?
 
Because most dating apps allow people to behave badly.

Would you introduce yourself to someone with just ‘hi’ in real life? Surely not. Would you share only your name on a first date? It would be weird if so. Yet people still put little or no effort into online conversations or well filled out profiles.  The solution? User screening. Inner Circle is the app that forces users to be their best online, by fighting these types of behaviours head on.

It may sound weird, but right from when you set up your profile you’re prepared for a more qualitative experience. By manually verifying each new member, the app ensures everyone has a good profile picture and a well filled out profile that showcases who they are. It means your time won’t be wasted on people who don’t care enough to put the effort in.

What’s also good, is that it keeps out catfish, scammers and fakes, meaning users are safe using Inner circle without worrying about being tricked or mislead by others. Everyone is who they say they are and their pictures are up to date. It means finding that person on your first date is also as easy as possible.
 
Finally, and most impressive is their desire for IRL meet-ups. This app usually hosts events all over the world, which vary from underground house parties to festivals or rooftop cocktail classes, and are always a sell-out. For now, these are on hold, but you can still find top-spot recommendations and cool places to go to help you set up the perfect first date.
