Romance Awareness Month

In celebration of Romance Awareness Month, which is observed during the month of August, Zoosk.com, the romantic social network, recently surveyed more than 2,300 Americans including those who are single and in a committed relationship, to gather their thoughts about modern day romance.

Zoosk's survey findings show that while the single life may sound glamorous, couples in committed relationships experience more romance in their lives. Specific survey findings include:

  • 71% of couples say their significant other is romantic, while only 41% of singles on the dating scene say the same about their "other."
  • 59% of couples are satisfied with the amount of romance in their lives, whereas only 20% of singles say the same.

What is deemed "romantic" changes as your status moves from "single" to "in a relationship."

  • Couples prefer a "hug and a kiss" (41%) over a romantic candlelit dinner (39%) as the most romantic gesture from their partner.
  • Singles, on the other hand, prefer a candlelit dinner (44%) over a hug and a kiss (32%).
  • And while taking out the garbage without being asked is appreciated, only 2% of couples and singles, respectively, say this qualifies as the most romantic thing their partner could do.

Americans agree: romance is important.

  • 78% of those polled agree that they consider romance in a relationship to be "very important."
  • 20% say it is "somewhat important" and only 2% say it is "not important."
