Dating Advice

Research supplied by an Australian online dating service have uncovered that singles in many employment and service roles are restricted from mainstream society. Recent studies reveal that there are more isolated singles per capita than any other group of single people. Over the past nine years statistics reveal that this group, more and more, are using online dating to meet friends and find romance. There has been a consistent increase of online dating members who either work shift hours, or who live in rural towns.

 

More than 75% of singles who do shift work on average, based on our research, claim to use online dating sites as their shift hours restrict them from finding singles via conventional ways. The type of shift workers in the study were nurses, logistic workers and factory employees. Shift workers will sometimes use chat rooms and web chat to find singles. Chat rooms are widely used with this group as finding extra time to fit in with regular hours is hard.

  

 

Single parents also find themselves isolated with 80% of those without partners taking up online dating services. Common restrictions for single parents finding other singles were a lack of child minders and general parental responsibilities. There has been a consistent increase with single parents meeting through online dating and forming a new collective family – typical of the well known TV programme ‘The Brady Bunch’. Between 1999 and 2008 internet dating has given single parents and their children the chance to meet and form new families with the trend continuing to increase at around 7% per annum. This growth seems to be in line with the online dating industry in general.

 

Singles who reside more than 300 kms from a main city and live in a town with fewer than 20,000 people are also using online dating services at an increasing rate year after year. Bachelor & Spinster balls are one of the main opportunities remote singles have to meet other singles. The Australian online dating site that produced these findings have concluded that B & S balls were not thought of as a realistic opportunity for remote singles to find a long term romance. This being the case, online dating is seen by these singles as their only genuine option for meeting someone.

 

With less options for isolated singles to be apart of conventional social outings, there are some niche online dating services emerging to capture this new market. There are online dating sites available that have set up online chat rooms and online groups especially for singles who share a similar set of social circumstances.
