70% Have Been On ‘At Least’ 4 Bad Dates In 12 Months!

If ever there was a time for a London matchmaker, this would certainly appear to be it. We’ve just read that an astounding 70 per cent of you have been on at least four unsuccessful dates in the past 12 months, with 40 per cent feeling out of pocket as a result. The TopCashback.co.uk survey found that 44 per cent believe they’ve spent too much money on dates that haven’t gone well, with an additional 45 per cent seeing this cash as wasted money. The average date apparently costs £70, with £25 spent in preparation (pampering sessions, new clothes and the like), £35 on the actual date itself and a further £10 on hanging out with friends afterwards to discuss the evening. In all, it seems that some £280 a year is spent on bad dates by singletons looking for love. With all these facts and figures in mind, it might be a better idea to sign up to a matchmaking service like Elect Club so that professional dating experts can help you find the one.
