Exploring America’s Most-Loved Rom-Coms

This new study from Preply doesn’t just show where Americans use affectionate nicknames most, it also highlights how varied those names can be depending on regional quirks and specific couple preferences. Using survey data from residents in every state, the research assigned a score reflecting how often people call their partners by a pet name and listed the most popular names in each region. Nationwide, we can see that classics like “honey”, “love”, and “baby” are the most common. Many Americans believe affectionate nicknames strengthen their relationships. One in four people report feeling that something is wrong if their partner uses their real name instead of a nickname.

Selfies and showing off their bodies. 


It is safe to say that many single women have seen an overwhelming amount of men take selfies of their body or their abs in their dating pics. This is so common that some women think that this is the way that most men present themselves on dating apps in 2021.

How dating has changed for singles during the COVID-19 pandemic

The pandemic has forced many single people to think differently about how they approach both dating and romantic interactions with other people. Previously it was very easy to meet new people and go on dates in public. The COVID-19 pandemic has changed that because many people are afraid of meeting and interacting on dates because of health and safety concerns. 


Basic Seltzer recently surveyed 2,000 unmarried millennials and Gen Zers to learn more about how sex and dating has changed during the pandemic. They wanted to see how people are adapting to virtual dating, virtual hookups and whether or not the same rules of dating apply to virtual dating during the pandemic. Let’s take a deeper look at the findings of their survey. 


The first part of the survey asked respondents how they have dated during the pandemic and what were their takeaways from virtual dating. First let’s start out with the positive. Virtual daters during the pandemic said they were dealing with less games when it comes to dating. 79% of virtual daters said that people they dated were playing less games and were more straightforward with what they did and didn’t want from people they were dating.

A Guide for Couples Moving-In

Living together with your partner can be comforting and it can come with a lot of benefits as well. Not only can you share your expenses with your partner, but you get to experience the feeling of coming back home to the one you love. While the comfort is there, a multitude of problems can arise as well. These can include the physical, actual things in your new home, or the entirely new experience of living with your partner.

Since there is no smooth sailing anywhere, it is important to remember that practicality is an important aspect of living with your partner. To begin with, the reason why you have chosen to live together should be clear. Are you going to live together because you're getting married soon? Or perhaps you are at the 'live-in' stage of your relationship?

The security team at Check Point has warned people of the risk of using dating apps where a lot of cases have been reported leading to ransom, especially in the last two years. Dating apps have become an important source of actionable data for cyber criminals as users on these apps share much more private information and more photos than they do on other platforms. 


One of the most popular dating apps, OkCupid, has about 50 million registered users in more than 100 countries. It is part of Match Group, an online dating world that has other platforms under it as well, such as Tinder, Plenty Of Fish, and Match. Check Point wanted to test how easy it would be for hackers to hijack accounts on OkCupid and found out that the task would be actually very convenient for attackers. According to Check Point, the access to everything within an account on OkCupid was easily available, including personal details and identity, messages, and photos. 


Check Point identified a vulnerability in OkCupid's link scheme which could be spoofed by malicious links disguised as ones belonging to the app itself. The links provided a route to exfiltrate data, hence allowing to trigger actions within the platform. A user that would click the link would 'credentialize' themselves, hence providing the hacker complete access to their account.

Dating According to Your MBTI Personality Type

 When it comes to dating and love, some people believe to align their relationship and feelings with their stars. They like to consider their psychological characteristics before making any big life decisions, such as those related to career or personal life choices. There are many psychological tests out there, crafted to fulfil this very purpose.

 The Myers-Briggs personality test was invented by Isabel Briggs Myers and her mother, Katharine Cook Briggs. It is a test known to help out an individual understand different aspects of their personality, to make better choices in career, dating, and much more based on how a person thinks and feels. There are 16 different MBTI personalities, each of which is defined by different psychological characteristics. If you aren't already aware of your MBTI type and want to learn more about how the MBTI test works, you can take a free MBTI test at 16personalities.com. 

 These psychological characteristics revolve around whether a person is an introvert or an extrovert, how they perceive the world, whether they base their decisions on senses or feelings, and much much more. It can tell you how you process information and feel on a day-to-day basis, and the activities you enjoy. The test has been accurate to quite an extent but you must remember that the results are just on the spectrum.

Online Dating Is the Way to Meet In 2020
If you met your partner in 1995, chances are the bar, party with friends, school, or work was probably the first meeting spot. However, with the emergence of technology and dating apps like Tinder and eHarmony – a lot has changed in the dating arena. In fact, a recent survey by Stanford University indicates that the majority of couples today are opting to meet their partner online.

The survey queried around 5,421 U.S. adults regarding the ‘first meeting’ with their partners. While traditional meeting points such as acquaintance through friends, parties, and restaurants was common during the 1995 era, the year 2017 saw a sharp rise in ‘meeting through online dating platforms.’

In fact, Stanford University reports that the number of heterosexuals who met their partner on an online medium increased from 2% to 37% between the years of 1995 and 2017. On the other hand, meeting at a bar/restaurant has also increased between the surveyed years from 19% to 27%.

The Science of Love: A Happy Relationship Cheat Sheet

Most of us make up when it comes to relationships as we go. So maintaining a great relationship can be hard work. While the early stages of love can quickly excite you, the grinding of everyday life and our own personal baggage can lead to conflict, hurt feelings and emotional withdrawal.

We find that the love and relationship research is bound up with empathy, positivity, and a strong emotional bond.Researchers have zeroed in on the' 5:1 ratio' for starters. For every negative interaction, couples should have at least 5 positive interactions as gratitude and appreciation play roles in fostering engagement.

While it is natural to fight in a relationship, science says there's a right way to go about it. A fight should last no longer than ten minutes. Studies also show that couples are 10 times more likely to be happy when they discuss things right after the fight.

And what does science say about sex's role in a happy relationship?It comes as no surprise that having sex is significant. One study showed couples having sex at least once a week was 44 per cent happier than those who don't.
