"I always go back to this, but the dating apps, I know it works for some people. Obviously there's a lot of success stories from it. But, you can write someone off behind a screen. Two, you see a person in public and then hope you see them on a dating app or on Instagram instead of just talking to them. And three, because of dating apps, it feels like the options are endless in dating, which - that's just so unauthentic,"
"Stoop Dating is a blind dating show hosted on a Southie porch step. Paired-up singles are interviewed while on a first date and ultimately decide to either go on a second date or to part ways. The dates usually last around an hour. One half is spent getting comfortable with fun questions involving either red or green flags or whiteboards, then the other 30 minutes is the actual date where the pair discuss their hot takes, dating preferences, and family lifestyles."
Stoop Dating is a Boston-centered blind dating show hosted on a Southie porch step that pairs singles for first-date interviews and a decision to continue or part ways. The show launched last March and has amassed more than 30,000 Instagram followers and over 40,000 on TikTok. Dates run about an hour, with roughly 30 minutes of icebreakers using red/green-flag prompts or whiteboards, followed by 30 minutes of substantive conversation about hot takes, preferences, and family lifestyles. The format emphasizes in-person chemistry as a local alternative to dating apps, which can create endless, unauthentic options. Tinder saw 3.6 million additional likes on Valentine’s Day 2024.
