That's a wrap on season 2 of Date in a Blink! We'd love to hear your thoughts – shoot us a note on Instagram or via email with your feedback, questions, or musings! 💜

when you only 5-10 data points about someone from a profile, it's easy to be picky and rule people out somewhat arbitrarily, preventing oneself from connecting with people and assessing whether you're compatible as partners #datingapps #datingtips #dating101 #datesmarter

we're told not to settle when dating, so why do we settle for dating apps that give us sub-par results? want to step up your dating game? sign up for @theblinkdate, the dating app that actually helps you date, conversate, and relate! #dating101 #datingtips #dontsettle

💡Date in a Blink was inspired by an experience at a blackout restaurant that made me wonder whether people would date better if they *talked first* and *saw second*. what I found is that love isn't blind... but it's a bit blurry. What do you think? is love blurry? #loveisblind

it can be easy to overlook when someone is lovebombing or future faking us... Pro tip: ask yourself how you'd react if it wasn't a romantic situation. it's easier to gauge what's abnormal when you take out the romance and see it in a platonic context! #protip #datingtip

remembering that dating is a data collection process can help us navigate getting to know people in a more productive way. it can be a relief to see dating as a process of gathering bits of data rather than a process in which we're constantly asking ourselves "are they 'the one'"

why is "getting emotional" seen as a bad thing? emotions are an indication of how we feel and shouldn't be something we're afraid of. as long as we equip ourselves to communicate and/or navigate our emotions in a healthy way, they can be helpful in our relationships! #emotion
