Sometimes you wake up in the morning in a great mood for absolutely no reason. You spring out of bed with a smile on your face and all seems right with the world and yet you haven’t even had your coffee yet! I’m in one of those moods today, can you guess why? Is it the fact that it’s Super Bowl weeked? Well, yes, but more on that later. Is it because I drank some weird Chinese tea last night that I suspect had opium in it? MAYBE, but no! It’s because of this article from USA Today<\/a>, which listed a ton of findings from Match.com survey that are right up our alley! Check it out:<\/p>\n

The first question asked if singles were looking to find love, and we were happy to see that for the most part, people aren’t actively searching out a relationship, but instead are waiting to see if one finds them. We have found that being open to meeting new people but not being constantly on the hunt for a boyfriend or girlfriend is the best way to find a relationship. I mean, just check out our nearly 30 weeks of testiMOANials<\/a> – they show the exact same thing!<\/p>\n

This next poll question, as you can see, is one of our favorites… it shows that online daters are opening up to the idea that sexual freedom isn’t something to be ashamed of! With a whopping 58% of singles saying that they’ve had a one-night stand, we’re excited to see that people are having fun, hooking up (and being safe about it, we hope), and letting relationships and marriages come when and if they do.<\/p>\n

<\/center><\/p>\n

And now – the gold mine. According to the study (of over 5,000 singles), marriage isn’t the first thing on singles minds anymore! While in the past, being an online dating site member meant that you were looking for a marriage right away. Now though, it seems singles aren’t sure that marriage is ever<\/i> necessary. At only 34% of the total population, it appears that people actively seeking marriage are actually in the minority, compared to the group of people who aren’t sure and those who are POSITIVE they aren’t looking for wedding bells!<\/p>\n

<\/center><\/p>\n

This may just be one survey, but with such a big population (from such a mainstream site, no less!), it puts a smile on our face to see that so many singles are realizing what we’ve known for years: marriage is slowly becoming obsolete, and finding love doesn’t mean searching endlessly for “The One,” you can just have fun, date, and hook up, and love with find you!<\/p>\n\n
