Best dating app for asian female

The online trend of dating in India is increasing every day. Especially during these times when the whole world is locked inside their homes, working online, studying online, meeting friends online then why not dating online?

It’s definitely not a good idea to spend this period alone just studying/working and Netflixing. It’s good to have someone to talk to especially if you are away from your homes and living alone. Staying alone for a long time, especially when you are not allowed to go out and meet people, can affect your mental health. Symptoms like panic attacks and depression are seen among the people since they are inside their houses for a long time.

So what can we do to cheer up ourselves? Talking? Yes, we are doing that. Long lost school friends, college friends, gully cricket friends, hostel roommates, called everyone. Daily called parents, thrice, just to let them know that we are absolutely doing fine and are safe.

But still, being an extrovert, I felt so lonely sometimes because I was not able to go out, meet new people, and have a conversation with strangers. So my friend suggested to me why don’t I use some dating apps? Honestly, at first, I laughed at this suggestion! But then she said that I can use them as a medium to interact with new people, without leaving my home. The best part? I don’t have to go out and meet them for verification! (No matter how much I enjoy meeting new people, I prefer meeting them accidentally and not after making any fixed date for a meeting)
