When it comes to dating, people tend to look for people with similar interests as it is easier to break the ice with them. You can avoid awkward silences with them because you will probably not run out of topics to talk about. But with time, the common grounds the Gen Z looks for in their potential partner have also changed. It is not just limited to talking about hobbies or favourite colour. The Gen Z wants someone they can ‘vibe’ with. A recent study by Bumble states that Gen Z vibes with someone who is up to date with pop-culture trends! Take a look at the new-age criteria of dating for the new generation!
