For the genuinely single crowd in UK, the perennial question is the same: Why are we still single? It's so surprising how many of my adult contacts and friends are eligible, well educated and yet still single because we find it difficult to find a person to date. It's like the dating scene in this country has become the world of Bridget Jones and her male counterparts. We're well educated, mobile and socially active individuals with decent bank accounts. But for some reason, getting a date on a Saturday night still remains a challenge for the best of us. Why?
When you're single, steering through the UK dating scene can be a tough situation. A lot of people are looking for "The One," and if you want to get ahead of the rest, it's time to put yourself out there. Being shy will not get you places.
No more singles?
It seems that in the UK, there is a shortage of eligible adult contacts, rendering dating a competitive sport. A majority of the people are part of a couple. You only need to enter a bar downtown on a Friday night and you'll find couples making out or flirting like there's no tomorrow. Observe this trend for a few more weeks and you will quickly see why local dating has become too crowded - and that perhaps, it's time to get out if you really want adult fun.
You just need to know where to look
There are lots of eligible singles out there, and those who cannot seem to meet these singles are probably just looking at the wrong places.
1. Use the internet. Sign up to reputable dating sites and you can meet singles asap. There are many benefits to on line dating - you can see info about a person first before you agree to meet, for example. Online dating sites also allow you to easily filter people and focus on the group you are eyeing, such as daters in your age range, daters with a certain education, etc. Remember that the social scene in the UK is sort of ageist. Daters aged 25 and younger usually don't have issues when it comes to finding someone to hang out with on a Friday night because they can get dates through classmates, colleagues, and practically everyone in their age group. But lets face it - you are older now, and it's harder to meet people in the same wavelength. In online dating, you can easily sift through the dating pool and meet singles you are truly compatible with.
2. Another option is no strings dating. If you know where to look, you will find "semi-attached" individuals - people who are not quite in serious relationships are free to date others. Most of them are just looking for casual dating, though, so don't expect a wedding soon. No strings dating is a growing trend in the UK, and you should take advantage of it, especially if you are just looking for fun. Who knows? Your relationship might take a more serious turn. You can even meet the love of your life. Luckily, dating sites like allows you to meet people who are looking for relaxed, casual dates. Become a member now, and start dating.
