The latest data released by The Office for National Statistics (ONS) indicates that approximately 51 per cent of the UK population is currently single. Let’s let that sink in. This equates to almost 18 million adult singletons in the UK alone. Which can only be great news, really, if you’re looking for love.

In fact, according to European research, 47 per cent of ‘single men attribute their longterm singledom to lack of confidence’. And, you guessed it, it is British blokes that are the most unlucky in love.
