Many Indians who go on dates have a variety of experiences and these often shape how they approach their relationship habits. While some of them choose to meet people online, there are others who simply choose to meet people in person.
Recent research from the Indian dating app QuackQuack sheds light on how GenZ and Millennial daters have different relationship habits. 10,000 users of the dating and friendship app who are between the ages of 18 and 35 and are both working workers and students were polled from Tier-1 and Tier-2 cities. The study reveals that both generations, despite significant differences in their dating habits, prefer online dating to its conventional counterpart. However, GenZ took the top spot, with nearly 59 per cent of participants under the age of 23 choosing dating apps as their preferred method of meeting someone, compared to 4 per cent of Millennial daters. Some Millennial daters are using matrimonial websites, but some still prefer old-fashioned meet-cutes and buddy introductions.
Casual vs Serious
About 43 per cent of the Millennial daters on the platform mentioned using the app to find genuine relationships to commit to; they are not interested in casual dating. For most of these daters, it is due to their growing age.
