Dopamine highs!

There’s a reason as to why we always want to check our phones!

Sharon Begley, author of ‘Can’t Just Stop: An Investigation of Compulsions’, thinks we a hit of dopamine (it’s what makes you feel good when listening to your favourite music) when checking our phones. It’s not about the texts we receive or the likes on a Facebook post – it’s the anticipation, we’re secretly hoping to see something that will give us a pleasure boost.

Which is why so many of us are seemingly addicted.

Begley recommends simply to check all your emails and texts at the end of the day rather than throughout.

The only match!

A man called Shed Simove, (45, entrepreneur from London) has come up with the brilliant idea for those who struggle on dating apps. Well for him atleast. He has made an app called Shinder – where he is the one and only match available.

If they swipe left they are given an option to sign up for Shed’s mailing list and they are told that they have ‘dodged a bullet’

While right swiping tells users that ‘You clearly have exquisite taste. You’ll be notified if you’re a match.’

 

While users who are male and swipe right are told ‘Sorry, Shed is currently a full blown heterosexual, but keep in touch.’
