## Resource

What if the biggest threat to your relationship isn't another person—but a machine that's designed to understand you perfectly? In 2025, more than 300 AI companion apps were available, and the rise of AI relationships is accelerating far faster than most people realize. One study from the Institute for Family Studies found that roughly one in seven adults between the ages of 18 and 30 who were dating, engaged, or married reported having an AI companion. This isn't science fiction anymore—it's reshaping how people seek connection, intimacy, and even love.
