Dating trends reveal rising demand for emotional intelligence, therapy-positive partners, and sober first dates just in time for Mental Health Awareness Month.
NEW YORK, May 15, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- As emotional wellness becomes non-negotiable in modern relationships, Tawkify America's #1 Matchmaker with over 200,000 successful connections reveals new insights in its Quarterly Dating Trends Report, just in time for Mental Health Awareness Month.
According to millions of data points and Tawkify's pool of singles, the report finds a 30% increase in singles actively seeking partners who are in therapy, emotionally available, and committed to personal growth.
"We've entered a new dating era where self work is a love language, " said Brie Temple, CCO at Tawkify. "Singles are looking beyond surface-level chemistry. They want partners who are doing the work, people who are emotionally intelligent, in therapy, and actively showing up for themselves and others. That's where real connection starts."
Tawkify's proprietary data also highlights:
- A sharp decline in interest around alcohol-based first dates, with activity dates seeing a 1.25X higher success rate
- In the past two years, there's been a 25% increase in users who are not using dating apps, signaling growing app fatigue and a shift toward more intentional dating.
- An increase in singles prioritizing long-term goals like emotional stability and family-building
"We've always believed that love begins with self-awareness," said Chris Kumar, CEO of Tawkify. "This report confirms what our matchmakers have seen firsthand that mental health isn't just part of the conversation, it's driving the choices people make when seeking long-term partners. We're proud to champion emotionally intelligent matchmaking with a private, expert-guided experience that's led to thousands of successful connections."
