After a year filled with questioning and even more candid conversations about love, singles are stepping into 2025 with a fresh mindset: optimistic, calm, and determined to find THE right person.
Micro-romance: little gestures that mean everything
No more oversized bouquets or declarations worthy of a Netflix movie. In 2025, romance is all about… micro! Sending a meme, sharing a playlist, or going for a morning walk with a takeaway coffee—that's what melts hearts. A majority (86%) of singles believe that these small yet sincere gestures are the true signs of love. This trend is already taking off on Bumble with options like Opening Move, "the quickest way to my heart." Everyday moments are becoming romantic.
"On the Same (Fan) Page": hobbies and compatibility are a must
Diving into niche activities, like pottery or pétanque, is becoming a criterion.
Attractiveness key. Nearly half (46%) of singles believe that sharing passions is a fantastic icebreaker, while 49% of Gen Z think that these moments together strengthen intimacy.```htmlSee this post on InstagramVoir cette publication sur Instagram
