Cuffing Season: A Survey on Romance, Seasonal Dates, and Body Warmth

October 29, 2018/in Date Stats /by Paige Butterfield


When the cooler months start tiptoeing in, when Katy Perry’s “California Gurls” is played on the radio just
a little bit less, a lesser-known phenomenon begins to spread.

For some, it starts with an innate longing to steal someone else’s sweater that smells like Abercrombie cologne. For others, it’s a desperate desire to tell Grandma between “Pass the turkey,” and “Mashed potatoes, please,” that, “I AM DATING SOMEONE!”

In fact, there’s a name for the idea that singles tend to couple up in the colder months – Cuffing Season.

And with Cuffing Season upon us, Coffee Meets Bagel surveyed 2,026 of our members to find out more about how singles feel about the phenomenon. Peek at our infographic for the juicy details.

CuffingSeason

The lesson from our Cuffing Season data? Having a partner has a lot of perks during the colder months: romance, seasonal dates, holiday plus-one’s, and, most important to those surveyed…warmth. 

While we love the idea of warming up with a plus-one, it’s easy to lose sight of the bigger picture. We advocate looking for a partner when you feel ready, not because you feel pressured by friends, family, or the changing seasons. (Unless the season and your readiness coincide – then, cuff away!)
Until then, we suggest a good sweater.

iPhone user dating an Android owner? Why your relationship is destined for disaster

August 31, 2013/in Date Stats /by Dawoon Kang

    Hey Bagels! We’ve just launched our own iPhone app! We think it just might be the #BestDatingAppEver. We’re very excited about it so we decided to do a series of articles revolving around mobile apps and cell phones in the dating world. We’d like to start with some science.

    Everyone knows that a first impression can make or break a romantic relationship. Does he leave a bad tip? He’s stingy. Got spinach in her teeth? Poor hygiene. Mismatching socks? Well that’s just not classy. We all judge our dates on how they look and act, but what about what they hold in their hands? Specifically, their cell phone. Smartphones these days have apps that can find you a date, track your fitness, and teach you how to cook, but the phone itself reveals more than meets the eye. Does she have an Android phone? According to a study by Hunch, she might just be an uneducated pessimist. No texts for her. Does he have an iPhone? He might be high-maintenance and more likely to text and drive. Watch out on the road. Your date’s phone can provide you with a wealth of information, and you don’t even have to snoop through it.

    Hunch’s study examined over 15,000 Hunch users who own a smart phone. Their data suggests that Android users and iPhone users differ on just about every trait available. Above infographic illustrates what it means to date an iPhone girl and an Android guy.

So what does this mean for you? Well, if you’re an iPhone girl, it means you probably shouldn’t date an Android boy. You’re too good for that, hun. If you’re an Android guy, then just don’t tell anyone. Are these recommendations completely serious? Of course they are. We used science.
