Millions of singles are looking for love and many of them know the dating world can be daunting.

So how are people meeting in 2026?

Yes, here with some advice on finding that perfect match is April Davis.

She's the founder of Luma Luxury Matchmaking and we really, we need you.

We've been having a really interesting conversation.

We're going to try to give people some stuff to walk away with here.

How are people meeting each other in 2026?

Well, the apps are always going to be the first thing that people will think of when they're looking to meet someone.

But really the best way to meet someone is in real life.

So getting out and doing things

that you enjoy Maybe it's just going to the gym

or signing up for some kind of social group Those are all great ways to meet somebody more organically

and you know They're in you're gonna have a shared shared interest and have something to talk about Yeah, people still want that meet cute Can you explain what

that is to people who don't know that they want to feel

that connection that eye contact that you know

that? interesting you know story line not just

that they maybe met on an app they want

that you know more organic type of experience and that

that feeling of butterflies when you first meet somebody but

that said people are still one in three married in 2025 met on an app

so it is still right yeah very much a thing it's yes the apps are they're everywhere

but people are feeling really burnt out by them they're they're sick of the fishing pictures fish pics yeah

and they're they're sick of people not looking like how they're portraying themselves online or even how they portray themselves.

Now people are chat fishing not just catfishing they're using AI to write the conversations.

You've been writing their profile and all these apps are incorporating AI into their apps

so they it will help people to sound better in order to get them that date.

So Gen Z has sort of changed sort of the focus.

Yeah, I think they're wanting to go out and have experiences and meet people more organically again.

People are done with being, they're just over the whole, after the COVID lockdowns and everything, people are longing to get out and actually do something in real life.

So that has become a thing.

When you do that and maybe you find someone that you're interested in, tell us about some green flags to look out for.

Well, I always think about how do they treat other people you know

when you're with them

and you know how do they treat the waitstaff how do

they talk about other people how are they talking about their ex you know is are they is

that ex the villain or

and are they the you know the victim mentality kind of thing

and you know those are things to keep definitely keep in

mind you said pay attention to what they do after the date yeah

and are they following up are they you know just ghosting you for some time

and then just checking in or maybe they're texting you late at night

when you know and you want to are they consistent?

I've always wondered like what's the right amount of time where you don't seem like you're too needy, but at the same time, you're not too standoffish?

Well, I think it really, it can depend on where your conversation.

So after a first date, maybe it is, I think it's beneficial to maybe reach out the next day to someone and,

but not just saying, oh, how's your day going?

Like maybe adding some kind of value to their day.

Hey, maybe you talked about something You could just send them some sort of photo or tidbit that you read about, you know, just adding some kind of value to their day Yeah, something memorable.

What are some green flags that people overlook?

Maybe don't give enough value.

Yeah Well, I think it's it's important to keep in mind, you know, is this person Do they have other things in their life,

you know, and how do you how do you have?

How do you argue with them, right?

Because a lot of people think that oh, well, we didn't have any arguments We've never argued before we've been dating for you know a year.

We've never argued Well, it's actually that is a red flag

if you've never been able to have an argument But

if somebody can argue fair with you if you can have a good conversation and respectful

Argument that is actually a great green flag You said yeah listening being genuinely curious about you

and then following through on making plans of some other ones Okay, we got to get to the red flags because we need what what are you telling people to look out for these?

Well, okay, so somebody that is just inconsistent, right?

They're maybe hot and they're cold.

They're not talking about making future plans with you

and you know maybe they have their life and then your their time

that they will maybe give to you on the side

so that's not really a relationship that's more of a situationship

and so that's not somebody

that you know is going to be really able making space

for you in their life um there's there's always like i said earlier the whole victim mentality those people

that get stuck in this mindset of oh everybody's everyone's terrible there's no great people out there

and blah blah blah and how do they approach life you want to try to figure

that out and i think when people make blanket statements about oh all women are terrible

or all men are terrible you know

that kind of gives you a clue into their mentality yeah

they're real judgy negative before we let you go we said

no more fishing pictures please apparently there's too many out there what kinds of photos do well on dating apps.

Well I think it's it's good to have those pictures

that are like when you're with with your friends for one for example

but you also don't want to get can be confusing right you want to we were saying earlier

that you want to be the best looking person in the photo so you don't want anyone to overshine you.

But I think that shows that you have a life you have interests you have friends

and stuff but I we actually provide photos for our clients

or we do photo shoots because we want to be able to show them in a good light and have great photos.

How can people find you?

Oh they can just go to our website at lumasearch.com and fill out the profile form.

Great.

Well, thanks for coming in.

Well, thank you for having me.

Really helpful advice.

Phương Pháp Shadowing Là Gì?

Shadowing là kỹ thuật học ngôn ngữ có cơ sở khoa học, ban đầu được phát triển cho chương trình đào tạo phiên dịch viên chuyên nghiệp và được phổ biến rộng rãi bởi nhà đa ngôn ngữ học Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Nguyên lý cốt lõi đơn giản nhưng cực kỳ hiệu quả: bạn nghe tiếng Anh của người bản xứ và lặp lại to ngay lập tức — như một "cái bóng" (shadow) đuổi theo người nói với độ trễ chỉ 1–2 giây. Khác với luyện ngữ pháp hay học từ vựng bị động, Shadowing buộc não bộ và cơ miệng phải đồng thời xử lý và tái tạo ngôn ngữ thực tế. Các nghiên cứu khoa học xác nhận phương pháp này cải thiện đáng kể phát âm, ngữ điệu, nhịp điệu, nối âm, kỹ năng nghe và độ lưu loát khi nói — đặc biệt hiệu quả cho người luyện IELTS Speaking và muốn giao tiếp tiếng Anh tự nhiên như người bản ngữ.
