Abstract

Dating apps have revolutionised the way people meet and interact in the modern dating landscape. However, there is a growing concern that women are increasingly dissatisfied with their experiences on these platforms. This research aims to explore and analyse the factors contributing to women's dissatisfaction with dating apps. Through interviews with women who have used dating apps and expressed dissatisfaction, this research seeks to uncover the main reasons behind their unhappiness. The study hypothesises that inadequate safety measures, shallow interactions, and unrealistic expectations are among the key factors causing women's dissatisfaction. By shedding light on these issues, this research hopes to provide valuable insights that can help understand the reasons behind the use of dating apps.
