BBC – In 2022, more folks openly moved away from both gender and attraction binaries. Online daters got increasingly vocal about exploring different types of relationships, from solo polyamory to platonic life partnerships. Gen Z has particularly embraced the grey area of dating by purposefully entering into 'situationships'. Overall, openness towards many kinds of non-traditional relationships has gained visibility, too. Ethical non-monogamy has been all over TikTok, often in the form of polyamorous relationships. For single people, navigating dating apps has still been hard. It's undeniable that dating apps have become the primary way for younger daters to meet, with thousands of online dating sites in existence and 48% of 18 to 29-year-olds in the US using them.
