With the evolution of online dating in the past decade, the age-old question of "Do you believe in love at first sight?" is starting to become less common. Online dating is now the second most common way to meet someone, so more and more relationships are starting from that simple first swipe. Therefore Luxy asked our Luxyers if they believed in "Love at First Swipe".

The results were instantly divisive, with votes going both ways equally. One Luxyer made the point that you could only truly get to know somebody, and therefore fall in love with them, in person; it’s the chemistry of that real life first time meeting someone that’s their deciding factor, saying that looks can only go so far. Another user remarked that in today’s society, people are busier and have less time for meeting people by chance, that it’s easier to make contact via these dating apps during their down time, sometimes being their only way of being able to have a meaningful conversation with somebody when people are moving so fast.

Of course the data seems to show that this "First swipe" model is immensely successful, with mobile dating apps reportedly making millions of matches a day, Luxy alone contributing to nearly 1.5 million of them. In addition, there are thousands of successful love stories from people who use these types of dating apps. However apps like this tend to attract the kind of people who are looking for a one time fling and not a meaningful long term relationship.

Luxy is different. Luxy prides itself on its high quality and aims to create a real bond between our likeminded users. In addition to providing the initial first swipe moment, our prestigious users can fine tune to find exactly the type of person they are looking for. With this our users are much more likely to find the one on Luxy than on any other dating app.
