Modern love is, well, complicated. Or is it?

Modern love is, well, complicated. Or is it? Once upon a time, young people found love locally, marrying school sweethearts, neighbours,or friends from work. But over the last two decades, the internet has changed the dynamics of finding love, so much so that it has complicated the rose-petal path to love.

Online dating websites have vastly expanded the pool of potential partners But with endless possibilities for matchups, dating has become harder not easier.

“Today’s generations are looking (exhaustively) for soul mates, whether we decide to hit the altar or not, and we have more opportunities than ever to find them,”
writes comedian Aziz Ansari in Time.
“The biggest changes have been brought by the $2.4 billion online-dating industry, which has exploded in the past few years with the arrival of dozens of mobile apps. Throw in the fact that people now get married later in life than ever before, turning their early 20s into a relentless hunt for more romantic options than previous generations could have ever imagined, and you have a recipe for romance gone haywire.”

Dating websites have promoted their use of algorithms to match people based on hobbies, interests, likes, and dislikes. They aim to streamline the search for love and make it less random than simply heading to the local bar.

And yet, only 20% of U.S. single adults say they are registered on a dating site.

That’s a surprisingly small percentage, particularly because the buzz around online dating has been steady since one of the first sites launched in 1995. But there’s a reason: More than half of US single adults say they view the services negatively, and women especially are more likely to be sceptical about using dating apps.

For many, the drawbacks include the lack of seriousness and the fact that it’s all too easy to misrepresent who you really are

The truth is, there are many other places where single adults can find love.

When asked how they meet potential dates, survey respondents most frequently mentioned being introduced by friends (58% of mentions),. Bars, coffee shops and other public areas were the next, with 37% of mentions, followed by the workplace and events or hobbies (each were mentioned 27% of the time). Single men were more likely to mention looking for love at sporting or religious events (33% of mentions), while young Millennials are more likely to turn to their friends for help (63% of mentions).

Finding true love is the primary motivation for using an online dating website or app. This was mentioned 60% of the time among online dating users, followed by meeting new friends (41% of mentions) and hookups (34% of mentions).
Not surprisingly, men and women have vastly different reasons for using online dating. Men are more likely to be looking for a hookup, while women most often mention they’d like to find lasting love.

When looking for love online, 25% say age is the most important criteria. After that, they look at level of education and employment, before turning their attention to physical appearance.

RECIPE FOR A SUCCESSFUL DATE! DON’T ORDER A SALAD

RECIPE FOR A SUCCESSFUL DATE! DON’T ORDER A SALAD

Men may think choosing a nice restaurant and flashing the cash is the way to impress on a date. But the real work, it seems, starts when we sit down at the table.

Research has found that food significantly impacts how we feel about our date. It seems salad is a poor choice for men, as it apparently suggests that they could be boring and even wimpy, more than health conscious.

In this same research the men say that they find women attractive if they have a good appetite, and get stuck into their food,

Only small percentage of men expected their date to engage in banter with their waiter, more than half the women who took part in this survey were more expectant in their expectations, especially in that their dates should have good manners in all ways and also offer to pick up the bill., .

How ditching your man can help you lose weight

How ditching your man can help you lose weight

It’s often assumed that break-ups can lead to heartbroken women piling on the pounds.
But for those in a poor relationhip ditching their partner could be the key to losing weight, says a study.

Researchers found that women in an unhappy relationship on average weighed up to a stone more than those in happier partnerships.
This is possibly down to the fact that women were happy to follow unhealthy eating patterns to avoid confrontation with their partners. However men seemed to be totally immune to the problem and do not gain or lose an inch at the waist, whatever their emotional state.

These studies suggest that women…may engage in unhealthy behaviours to please their partner or maintain their relationship with them.

In the study, 43 heterosexual couples, aged 18-69, were quizzed about their relationship, lifestyle, and willingness to lose weight, including unhealthy behaviour such as drinking, snacking or drinking too much together.

The questions were also designed to reveal how happy or unhappy they were, including level of commitment and sharing.

The study said that some women were tempted to follow their partners’ bad habits for the sake of peace, giving the couples at least one shared pleasure in common.
But an overall a healthy relationship encouraged good eating habits.

Now we are into 2017, January seems to be speeding past and it’s nearly Valentine’s Day.
The worse date possible for all us singletons, worse than New Year’s Eve as it’s an in-your-face-reminder that we are no longer in a relationship.
So what to do?
Firstly ignore all those smug couples and arrange a night out with a group of your other single mates. You could go and do anything fun which is not a couple-y restaurant, bar or club related outing.
How about a quiz night, a sporty evening, the cinema, the theatre, a music gig or a fun karaoke session?
or
Arrange a fun at home evening where you host a themed evening, not Valentines!
However whilst you are organising entertainment for yourself and your friends you could also browse for free online at www.Newlysingledating.co.uk and see if there is anyone’s profiles that take your fancy. You never know you could end up with a blossoming romance by February 14th!
