I don't have exact data on that, but what Hinge is doing right now with Your Turn Limits is really trying to lower that.

So we have research that people think that when you talk to five or fewer people at the same time, you're more likely to get to a date with them and you're more likely to get into a relationship.

So a lot of people like to have their eggs in all the baskets.

They like to keep their options open.

But an interesting piece of research from behavioral science is that we prefer options, but often things are better when we have fewer choices because then we feel more confident in our decisions.

If you are somebody who wants to focus on one person at a time, that's great.

If you want more options, talk to five, six, seven, eight people at a time.

But when you're trying to keep all these balls in the air, you're going to drop some.

And so I was at a party a few weeks ago and this girl was like, you work at Hinge?

Where's my husband?

Look at my phone.

Where's my husband?

And I was like, okay, cool.

Let's open Hinge.

And I was like- And tell me the mistakes she was making.

She had so many matches that she wasn't responding to.

And I was like, you went through the effort of indicating interest in this person and matching with them.

You didn't even get to the third back and forth in your conversation.

And then you're saying, where's my husband?

He very well could be in your matches, but you're just getting more and more people instead of actually looking at each one and saying, do I want to go on a date with you?
