Most of us are under financial pressure – but how does that work for people who are dating? Single people are still dating but now not so much fancy restaurants or cocktail bars. You can still have a good time though but people are now often opting for “infla-dating” (choosing affordable date ideas) as a direct result of being more budget-conscious. Think lower-cost or at-home date options, such as a homemade meal or movie night. Daters are also embracing The “loud budgeting” trend which involves being confident in saying “no” to expensive social activities and instead being vocal and open about your budget. This helps resist peer pressure and also possibly the pressure you may feel to impress your date. Keeping it real has its benefits too – with all the excess stripped back – you get to connect on probably a much deeper level. #datingonabudget #budgetdating #infla-dating #loudbudgeting
