Did Dating Apps Destroy Old-Fashioned Romance?

Romance might still be alive—and thriving—thanks to a recent study showing that despite technological advancements and societal changes, traditional relationship stages like flirtationships and commitment are holding strong among college students. The research found that while communication improved through technology, it didn't alter the fundamental progression of romantic relationships, which remains largely intact even as times have changed. From lighthearted flirting to official commitments, modern dating has its own unique path forward, proving romance is far from dead and more adaptable than ever.
