About this listen
Digital Lovers: Dating Apps, Desire, and the Illusion of ChoiceHave you ever opened a dating app and felt overwhelmed by endless profiles? Or maybe the opposite, that in a smaller place, there are barely any choices at all?
In this episode, I share my journey with dating apps, from the recycled profiles of Cyprus, to the infinite swiping culture of Barcelona, and a recent trip to Porto where meeting someone offline felt unexpectedly alive.
It’s a reflection on how apps shape intimacy and desire, how performance often gets rewarded over authenticity, and what happens when our choices expand so much they leave us detached.
But this isn’t just my story. It’s an invitation to reflect on yours.
How do you balance online and offline connection? When was the last time you met someone outside an app? And do these platforms bring you closer to intimacy, or further away?
