For almost three decades, online dating has been in circulation. For a long time, it was looked down upon, considered a “desperate” last attempt – this stigma has all but dissipated thanks to the growing appeal of online dating sites and applications. As technology evolves, more and more users are gaining access to smartphones, which translates to an estimated 53.3 million Americans expected to use internet dating services by 2024. With hundreds of services and apps flooding the internet, how can two people looking to meet “the one” stand out on a platform?
A 2022 Love Story
The dating world wasn’t always like this – in fact, there was a time when courtship and dating were a lot different. If you look back to the caveman’s time, they were one of the first recorded civilizations to give gifts when they wanted to show their dominance or affection. By giving these gifts, the men showed their ability to support and provide for a family – this was extra appealing to the females. The most common gifts given among the caveman culture were teeth and stones, which were considered keepsakes among this group.
Fast forward to 2022 – a new trend is emerging in the field of dating. For the most part, gift-giving on dates essentially died out. Don’t worry! This fad is coming back (like all good past trends). Now, the creation of wish lists makes it easier for first-dates to bring a gift – an offering that symbolizes the attention to detail and the expression of economic wellbeing.
Bringing a Gift From the Wish List
If you think about how a male peacock has extravagant feathers and uses them to catch the attention of the female peahen, you could look to wish list gifts in the same way. The suitor picks the most elegant gift from the wish list and presents it to his female prospect. He shows her that he pays attention to her wants and desires but chooses her higher-end tastes over the low-end ones.
The same works vice versa. Women can look at the wish list of the male (should he decide to create one) and bring a gift as well. Traditionally, this role was reserved for males. It’s 2022, though, so we have to keep our options open, right?
