Online extramarital affairs on the rise during coronavirus lockdown!

-

Coronavirus or COVID-19 pandemic has brought the country to a standstill. People are strictly maintaining social distancing. Office-goers are working from home.

Every minute is spent in the anticipation of only one good news—when will the threat be over and life will return to normalcy?

As more and more states in India are declaring a complete lockdown, people’s dependency on the Internet for survival too is growing. It seems some folks are using the Internet to boost their love life as well.

Taking advantage of this situation, a few are using online dating platforms and extramarital dating apps for some quick romantic affair!

According to a statement released by Gleeden, an extramarital dating app, they have seen their subscriptions increased by over 70 per cent recently. According to the statement, the reason behind this spurt is that more and more people are staying indoors and are using the Internet for communication and all.

While it is not uncommon for people to get bored during such times, yet they can utilise this lockdown time to spend more meaningful time with their partner rather than by having an online affair or an online extramarital affair. Here are a few ways to spend meaningful time with your partner during the lockdown.
Do things together
Take the advantage of social distancing and the unlimited indoor time to do things together with a partner. It could be as simple as cooking meals together or building a new hobby. According to experts, spending time together is the best medicine to keep a relationship healthy and strong.

Work on your communications skill
Communication is the key to a successful relationship. So, use this time wisely to build your communication skills. Have meaningful discussions with your partner and sort out issues that you have been brushing under the carpet due to lack of time.

Catch up with favourite movies, series or read books
If you are looking for bonding, what could bring you closer than watching favourite movies or series. Also, bibliophile couples can read each other’s favourite books and then they can play a very romantic game of guessing each other’s favourite part in the book. Every time a person makes the right guess, he or she gets a kiss from the other!
