There is a new trend buzzing in the online dating world- micro-matching, and GenZs are all for it. The trend is redefining how people connect online, shifting the focus from a broader level of compatibility to a more micro-level.

Indian dating app, QuackQuack`s current study on the subject reveals that 36 per cent of daters between the ages of 18 and 25 are inclined towards finding connections through small and meaningful everyday gestures rather than grand ones that are quite common in the initial stages but tend to fade in the long term. Daters say that the trend does not quite replace the grand romantic gestures as much as it complements them.

The study has been conducted among 12,000 GenZ app users across urban, suburban, and rural India to gather an overall perspective on the trend. Respondents were asked to share preferences, personal experience, opinions, and outcomes while engaging in micro-matching. Participants of the study were primarily students, working professionals, and job-seekers.
