SOURCE WIRE -- Nov 17 -- It's official; British men fall in love faster than woman and they are more likely to suffer adverse physical side effects as a result, a new study has found. Dizziness, rashes and stomach aches were just some of the symptoms experienced by over 5000 people across Europe studied by online dating specialist PARSHIP – part of their European Love index. PARSHIP (2 million active members) is Europe's serious relationship dating service.
- 30% of men say they fell in love on the first date
- 12% suffer from dizziness as a result
- 24% of men took time off work when they fell in love
- 30% of men say their thinking became impaired
Mark Brooks: This is one of my favorite press releases of the year. This sort of press release has a good chance of getting picked up as a fun side article.
I agree this can be a fun article, but the "findings" are neither new nor surprising. It is well known that men fall in love faster than women, and that the symptoms of early stages of love and attachment parallel physical illness (even mental illness!).
