Flirty or abstinent, the summer of the French is revealed in a Happn survey

It is true that the holidays have been mixed this year and what to say about romantic encounters. Have the desires for the other been stronger than the health crisis?

Back to school is at our feet. So it's time to recap the summer. And what could be more crisp than talking about romantic encounters and summer libido. After two months of confinement, singles can meet again, hallelujah. Masked princess or prince charming, where is love? Happn, one of the leaders in dating apps, conducted a survey of its users to find out whether or not vacations were synonymous with abstinence …

When asked "summer was rather …", the French answered 52% calm and cautious, 41% self-love and 7% fiery and sensual. These figures show that the coronavirus has had real consequences on our privacy. Regarding the time of the meeting, said "date", Happn users are 50% ok for honesty and transparency on exposure to the virus. For 43%, there was no more precaution than last year. And only 7% of French people preferred video dates, in a friendly and romantic spirit.

In this health crisis, singles say 56% that their sexuality has not changed. Others, 31%, admit to having had sex only if they are truly invested in the relationship. And 13% preferred to refocus on themselves and various other forms of pleasures.

Confinement, the wearing of the obligatory mask, health barriers therefore have repercussions on romantic relationships. An evolution of romantic dates is noticeable, videoconferencing leaves the framework of work to land in the private sphere. A new era is playing out for future couples. As long as the love is there (for oneself as for the other), the way in which the relationship is born is superficial. Simply, think about preserving your health.
