Love Loops have Upgraded Their Compatibility Rings
When the first compatibility rings came out in 2080, people were very apprehensive about them. After all, a device that alerts you when you pass a compatible male or female counterpart on a bus or sidewalk, was an absurd notion. There was also more suspicion around giving out your DNA info to a commercial company.
Till then people dated online or in the “V”, counting on algorithms and looks for a good match, a method that often proved to be disastrous.
But after a decent generation was born from the Love Loops’ service, to solid households, these devices became embedded into our society.
When they added colors that changed according to the level and type of compatibility one might have with a stranger, it changed the marriage scene forever.
Now, Love Loops is upgrading their rings to include a function that tells you not only who and how you are compatible with someone, but also the speculative life you would have with this stranger, including the kind of children you would produce together, and how this potential partner will change you.
Before, when the rings changed colors, perhaps you shared a giggle or a charming smile with a random compatible passerby, but now you will be able to share a glimpse into a lifetime, one you could choose to keep or let go on the spot. Just swipe left for yes, and right for next life buddy.
