January Dating Bonanza!
Category: Features
Oh, January. So cold, so wet, so dark. If you're languishing in those new year doldrums here's a slice of good news for you: January is a very good month for dating, and, more specifically, this Sunday, January 9th is the best day of all!
Historically the first Sunday in January is the busiest day of the year for online dating and memberships to mysinglefriend.com go through the roof. January is a time of fresh starts and resolutions which accounts for some of our new members and the desire to continue the buzz of the festive season probably accounts for the rest. Whatever the reason, whether you're one of those new members or you've been with us a little while, go forth and date! There'll be lots of new faces appearing, so get searching, favouriting and mailing.
Once you've found someone who tickles your fancy you'll need somewhere to go on your date. Rigorous scientific research shows us that Thursdays are the most popular date day and it takes 2 weeks on average to set up a date after joining mysinglefriend.com so we're predicting Thursday 27th of January to be the day when the most dates happen in the UK in 2011. Dating in the summer is a doddle (riverside pubs, outdoor cinemas, frisbee in the park etc) but it can be hard to ramp up the romance when you're wearing 6 layers and your nose is running. If you're in need of inspiration we'll be putting together a guide to winter dating in the next couple of weeks, so keep an eye on the blog.
