West Coast Dating Habits Differ From East Coast |
West Coast singles are happier about their solo status, but still looking.
The Yahoo! Personals survey found that 61 percent of West Coast women and 54% of men are happier about being single than their East Coast counterparts. Although one-fourth of respondents (both men and women) from the West say they are "single and living it up," 75 percent of respondents from coast-to-coast say they are "single, but seriously looking" for their special match.
Personality and primping matter most everywhere.
The majority of respondents (63%) for all regions say that personality is the most important trait when deciding whether to go out with someone. Once a date is set, taking the time to look their best is important for both men and women. Eighty percent of women spend an hour or more primping for a date, whereas just more than half (51%) of single men spend one hour getting ready.
