Love in lockdown: London might have gone quiet but your dating life doesn’t have to.
The Big Smoke isn’t itself right now. The streets are quiet, the pubs empty, and Londoners are staying at home for the time being. But it’s 2020, which means just because we’re all distancing, doesn’t mean we can’t be social. More and more stories are surfacing of video dates, surprise take-away dates, and other inventive ways in which people are making their dates creative.
The Inner Circle has reported that activity on the app is higher they could have ever imagined. It makes sense, people are sociable, so if you can’t meet in real life, do it online.
“People are swiping and matching more than ever, and we’re seeing users suggesting hilariously inventive first date ideas”
People are signing up to this app at record speed, and we’re not surprised. With every new member being manually verified, you know that no one will be chatting with bad intentions or under a false identity. It keeps the time wasters away, and means you can keep your love life ticking over, knowing the person on the other end is exactly who they say they are. You never know, it might even lead somewhere.
The Inner Circle is the app that’s known for its events, especially here in London where they’ve thrown some huge parties, pop-up festivals, and even some more intimate masterclasses. These are on hold right now, but rumour has it they’re working hard to bring events online so you can keep mixing and mingling, even in quarantine.
Life right now is pretty weird, but keep iso-dating and before we know it we’ll be able to meet our matches in real life.
Turn quarantine into quality time, and sign up for The Inner Circle here.
