Singles Think True Love Is Hard to Find During the Holiday Season

Date: 2006-12-05

Finding true love may be on the Christmas list of millions of Americans this year, but according to a recent survey, most singles don't expect to meet that special someone during the holiday season. When more than 1,200 singles were asked whether they or someone they know had ever met someone special during the holidays, both men and women responded "no" overwhelmingly (79 percent).

"While we know singles are wishing for their special someone, it's not surprising to see that most don't think they'll meet this person during the holidays," said Fite, TRUE's relationship expert and profile coach. "The holidays are traditionally viewed as a difficult time for meeting someone, but they don't have to be. There are also many opportunities to find that special person that are only available this time of the year."

The survey showed that the gift approach is a very popular tactic for both men and women. When asked if they had talked with a store employee while holiday shopping simply because they thought he or she was cute, more than half of men (74 percent) and women (51 percent) responded that they had.

By contrast, fewer respondents have admitted to using mistletoe (30 percent) or New Year's Eve (37 percent) as an opportunity to kiss someone.

"While kissing is a surely a strong gesture at any time, mistletoe and New Year's Eve are great excuses for socially acceptable kissing," said Coach Fite. "Singles do need to judge the situation carefully. It's best to probably go for the cheek, and expect that the lips will follow."

The survey also revealed how singles felt they ranked on Santa's naughty or nice list. More than half (64 percent) of respondents claimed that they were nice. Of the group, men above the age of 50 and women ages 25-34 ranked themselves as the naughtiest.

Given a list of 10 popular holiday rental movies to watch on a date, men and women had different opinions. Sixteen percent of single women voted Love Actually the best holiday-themed movie for a night of snuggling on the couch. The same movie ranked eighth by male respondents. Men preferred National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, which ranked third with women.

"Singles should always take advantage of what the holidays offer. Once a year meeting opportunities along with a fresh start to a new year make this an ideal time for finding that special someone."
