Adult friendships are hard
and even more difficult when you’re in your 30s
What Doubles Social Solves
The launch of Doubles Social arrives at an important time as societal changes are impacting adult friendships.
The launch of Doubles Social arrives at an important time as societal changes are impacting adult friendships. We're facing a Friendship Recession as work becomes a dominant social identity, screen time increases, exurban communities rise, and third places decrease. Plus, a surge in groups, from childfree millennials and sober-curious individuals to racquet sport enthusiasts, are actively seeking community.
Pop culture is also touching upon this topic. Famous podcaster, Mel Robbins, and social media creator & author, Tinx, have highlighted the difficulties of adult friendships. For example, Tinx coined “The Splinter Era,” when you hit your 30s and your friend group goes in different directions, which can lead to anxiety.
While apps and clubs for making friends exist, they are primarily targeted toward single people, women-only, or a broad audience. Meanwhile, double dating apps/features on the market are designed for singles looking to go on dates with a wingperson.
Doubles Social is different. It’s an elevated solution, creating a space for couples to meet other couples with similar interests, hobbies, and life stages. Its innovative Double Date Request feature and Schedule of upcoming double dates overcomes planning barriers many couples in their 30s face - in just a few taps. Platonic double dating enables couples to truly bond in a two-on-two setting.

Our Story
Jourdann Lubliner, the founder & CEO of Doubles Social, felt a shift in her social life as she hit her 30s; many of her friends were getting married, starting families, and moving out of New York City, where she lives with her husband. She was seeing her friends less frequently, and it was becoming harder to get double dates on the calendar.
As an avid tennis player, skier, concertgoer, and restaurant lover, Jourdann sought to bring back the fun and spontaneity of her 20s while adapting to the new life stages that come with your 30s, leading her to launch Doubles Social.
Jourdann has 15 years of PR experience and is also the Founder & CEO of Electrify PR.
