What S'pore women want in their men
-
Tall and can earn money
There are generally two types of dating apps - those that allow you to chat your match up once you receive a mutual like, and those that don't allow you to chat them up.
Most dating apps fall under the first category - such as Tinder, Paktor, Coffee Meets Bagel, and many others.
For Singapore based LunchClick, it falls under the second one. The only way to chat with your match is only when you meet up with him or her.
Unfamiliar with LunchClick? The dating app sends you one match a day at noon, and if you receive a mutual like, you can then send questions (which are preloaded on the app) to your match to find out more about him or her.
If you are happy with the responses from your match, you can then ask her out for a date (or agree to a date request).
Since its launch a year ago, LunchClick has amassed a huge trove of data based on the responses from its user, and has shared some insights into the minds of single ladies in Singapore. These responses are from a random anonymous sample pool of 200 female users on LunchClick.
Here are some very interesting findings:
Height is apparently a very big deal - 75% of the female respondents are unlikely or very unlikely to date someone who is shorter.
Age is not such a big deal - 53% of the female respondents are neutral towards dating a guy who is younger.
Capacity to earn money can be a deal breaker too - 98% of the respondents chose "neutral", "unlikely, very unlikely" when ask if they will date someone who is earning lesser.
Almost 1 on 2 girls (46%) thinks the boyfriend should propose in 1 - 2 years. Wow.
In less than 6 months after you are in a relationship, 60% of the girls thinks they should meet the boyfriend's friends, and 50% of the girls thinks they should meet the parents in 0.5 - 1 year.
67% of the respondents prefer to meet their boyfriend 2-3 times per week.
None of the respondents want to meet 6 - 7 times per week.
