Want to know a little bit about the guy you'll be
meeting for a first date later? Most women admit that they check their
prospective date's Facebook profile to get a little dirt on the man in
question. In fact, 86 percent of women would "Facebook stalk" a guy
before their first date, a recent poll revealed.
Research by UK
dating site for2.co found curious (and slightly nosy) ladies will even
google or linkedin-search their love interest before they first meet-up.
Men, on the other
hand, are slightly less eager to scout pre-date with only 65 percent admitting
they’d go on a hunt for their female companion on Facebook and 22 percent check
google for any controversial headlines.
The findings emerged
in a survey of 1000 particpants recounting their varied dating experiences.
It was also revealed
that only 34 percent of women would be able to ignore their phone for the
entire date, with a slightly more polite male cohort (45 percent) being able to
battle the temptation to check it.
The study also found
that commitment-shy guys can often pull the wool over a girl's eyes when
technology is involved with 16 percent saying "I love you" to a girl
by e-mail or text but not face to face, and seven percent openly admitting
they're more romantic online or in texts.
