The number of single people in the UK has also been increasing, with 7.7 million single-person households in 2019, an increase of 16% compared to 20 years earlier.

It is estimated that around 34% of the adult population is single. This percentage includes people looking for a relationship and those who are not.

There was a survey done by Mintel and 41% of UK singles who have tried dating apps reported feeling disheartened by the experience. There is a significant number of singles that are looking for alternative ways in meeting a potential partner.

So where do people meet their future partners?

When you were younger you had a very large pool of people that allowed you to meet and mix with new people. Then as you go into work, depending on where you work, your pool of people might have got smaller. Then slowly your friends start to pair off and you are left wondering how to meet potential future partners. If you do not want to use dating apps, there are alternative ways to meet potential partners. You could consider working with a local matchmaker who organises social events. This is a friendly, no pressure way in meeting other singles.
