On this week’s Solo Summer Session, Matchmaker Maria dives into the rise of the Gen Z stare and how it reflects shifting norms in dating and communication. From emotionless customer service to silent babysitters, she shares real-life encounters that left her questioning today’s social cues. Maria explores how Gen Z’s unique upbringing, including remote schooling, may impact their ability to build intimacy and express vulnerability. She also breaks down a hilarious dating trend in New York City where women swipe Sweetgreen lunches to spark romantic connections. Plus, she unpacks the latest Singles in America study, revealing why 30 percent of Gen Z identify as intentionally celibate while still believing in true love. If you're curious about generational dating habits and what they say about the future of relationships, this episode is a must-listen!
