Dating 💑💏 Preferences
When it comes to online dating👨🏻💻👩🏻💻💑💏, women 👭👭 are as likely as men 👬👬 to focus on physical 👀👁👁 attraction 😍
This survey 📌📋✅ has shown that ladies 👭👭 choose physical appearance (height, body type, teeth, skin color) as the most important criteria when they decide whether to meet their match offline 👫
While texting 📳 etiquette is more important for ladies👭👭, men👬👬 are more focused on the dating💑💏profiles of the ladies👭👭

This is especially true for Singaporean females 🇸🇬 👭👭 where 49% of those not actively looking for a partner as they enjoy being single 👭👬
With the shift of online dating 👨🏻💻👩🏻💻💑💏 perception from the swiping culture to slow dating, it’s not surprising that more singles 👭👬 highly prefer a more organic way of meeting potential partners through organic introductions e.g. meeting in public places/ recommendations from friends 😃

Based on the survey results 📈📊📑, many singles 👭👬 are actively looking & swiping online. Interestingly, they are not interested in investing much time/ effort in preparing their profile but they expect others to as many of them spend time reading 📖 the profiles,” Ms. Violet shared 👩🏻💼
