A recent statistical survey conducted by the popular dating app “JD-Just Dating” has unveiled several interesting online dating phenomena in Hong Kong. 78% of singles aged 25 to 45 have met their online dates in person, with 1 out of every 6 of them having intimate relationships with online friends for the first time. Moreover, women in Hong Kong invite somebody on a date 1.22 times more than men.

Further analysis reveals that over half of Hong Kong males seek partners who are “easy to talk to” and of a similar age, whereas women prefer “Mature Men,” even finding men with a slight belly more attractive and protective. It is worth noting that 60% of women with this preference are primarily young ladies aged between 22 and 28.
