EPISODE SUMMARY
In this episode of Modern Wisdom, featuring Logan Ury and Chris Williamson, Hinge's Relationship Scientist Gives Dating Advice - Logan Ury explores Hinge scientist reveals data-backed strategies for smarter modern dating decisions Logan Ury, Hinge’s Director of Relationship Science, explains how behavioral science and relationship research can help people date more intentionally instead of relying on romantic myths. She contrasts maximizers and satisficers, outlines three common “dating tendencies,” and shows why our expectations—fueled by apps, surveillance culture, and rom-com narratives—often sabotage long-term success. Ury also offers concrete advice on profile design, first dates, deciding versus sliding in relationships, and knowing when to stay, leave, or heal after a breakup. Throughout, she argues that true romance is built in everyday commitment and teamwork, not in meet‑cutes or instant “sparks.”
