Facts on Russia:


More women than men admitted to being a 'Dear John Texter' meaning they have broken up with their partner using a text message from their mobile phone.

Date: 2007-04-05

What is more, over half of the women surveyed admitted to being guilty of intextication - texting under the influence of alcohol.

"Technology is now so present in our communication that it's figuring more and more in our love lives. Most women highly value communicating, and mobile phones have become a key relationships tool," said RSVP's Lija Jarvis.

On the up side, technology also featured in people getting together with just under two thirds of respondents saying they rely primarily on e-mail and text to contact prospective dates.

Almost all respondents believe that technology has made dating easier for busy people. According to 94 per cent of men and 96 per cent of women technology has made dating easier.

"Our schedules often prevent us from spending time with our partners or prospective dates, but technology gives us a way to stay in touch," said Jarvis.

The increased prevalence of mobile phones, email and instant messenger in our dating lives has led to previously unknown initialisms like H&K (hugs and kisses) entering mainstream language. As a result, society is becoming increasingly more "tech-lingual", with the ability to decode these abbreviations.

"The immediacy of these new technologies is continuing to compress and compact language. For example, ‘all my love' has become AML," said Jarvis.

This tailored tech language is part of the convenience that time-strapped singles are embracing in their dating strategies.
"We're now also seeing some people making the mistake of using text messages or emails as a replacement for meaningful face to face contact. However, there is always the danger or email and text communication suffering from misinterpretation, either contextually or with regard to tone. Take the time to pick up the phone to chat to potential dates - and don't forget to kiss your partner in real life as well as in a text or email!"

Just for a bit of fun RSVP has decoded the following popular abbreviations for the TXT challenged:

- 143's (I love you)
- 2G2BT (To good to be true)
- AML's (all my love)
- ASL's (age/sex/location)
- H&K's (hugs and kisses)
- Lol (Laugh out loud)
- B4N (Bye for now)
- CUL8R (See you later)
- OMG (Oh my God)
- QT (Cutie)

The days of announcing a new relationship by wearing a crush's class ring or letterman's jacket have evolved. Now it's all about the relationship status on social networking sites.
