It is very popular with social media login or social media signup when we register at websites. And some of our members have been asking us why we don't have that feature in Educated Singles Club when we ask prospective members for a link to their LinkedIn profile during the application process anyway.We don't use social media signup or login becauseIt would compromise our privacy rules. Every time you use your social media account to sign up or log in to a website you agree to pass on a lot of information to a third party.

Meeting other educated singles can be challengingYou appear to have everything in life. A great job, a good education and perhaps even some children. But you still feel you miss something, name a partner in life who matches you both emotionally, sexually and intellectually. This is a lot to ask for, but it is nevertheless what most of us are dreaming about. And a lot of people, especially you well-educated singles, are perfectly happy with being single. That goes for both men and women. Many of you do want a partner, but not at any price. That is because you are more independent than other social groups and you have a lot of their confidence in things you already have, namely your educa

From: Vice.comWe all have that friend: the beautiful, intelligent, driven woman who—like Katherine Heigl in every rom-com—can't find a decent date. Every guy she goes out with is an asshole; she consistently dates "below" her league, and she's on the verge of giving up on a committed relationship altogether. Not long after he turned 30, the writer Jon Birger realized he and his wife knew a lot of women like that. The couple didn't have a lot of single male friends left, but the many single women they knew all seemed to be buyers stuck in a seller's market. One of those friends, Birger told me, "had been dating a guy for a couple years. It certainly seemed like they were well on the

We have become used to free services. Social media profiles are free but still, the companies behind them are making a lot of money. How can that be? They earn their money partly from advertisers and partly from selling information about you to third party companies who can use that information for targeted marketing.Most dating sites are no different. They tempt you with free profiles. What do you have to lose? Everything. Many dating sites who are trying to lure information out of you have a lot of fake profiles and some of the have robots pretending to be users that send you messages if you haven’t logged in for a while. It is easy getting the feeling of being betrayed and exploited. If s

Travelling is great, but for some people, it can become a little too much and for others, it is a regular showstopper when it comes to starting a relationship. A lot of people travel very often for work, and not surprisingly it is the well-educated singles who travel the most.When you don't have a significant other person in your life it is both easy and convenient to throw your love at your work. These academic singles with international careers usually tell themselves that when they meet the right person they will travel less and change the priorities in their life.The only problem is, that despite all the great intentions, that it is very difficult to make these changes.

I have a great education, a great job but can't find a partner - why? We all have dreams in our lives - different dreams of course. A lot of people are dreaming about getting a great education, a great job and a great life partner.  Many of those people usually succeed in getting the first two by working hard. The recipe for fulfilling the third dream is a lot more complex, uncertain and diversified.That is one of the reasons why we believe that there are so many well-educated singles around the world. Educated people know that hard work usually leads to the desired result - except when it comes to relationships.We have interviewed more than 3000 well-educated singles in 8 countries who

Nice, FRANCE- As the number of single women with high flying careers and higher levels of education grows, one online community is committed to offering a solution for women who have put the pursuit of love on hold in the pursuit of career and education. When looking for the ideal partner, soul mate or simply the opportunity to connect with a likeminded individual it can be difficult to meet like-minded people while pursuing further education or a high-powered career. This can be particularly challenging for women. By the time they climb to the top in their career, the field intellectual equals in which to find a soul mate is often significantly narrowed. Educated Singles is the br

Ebert wanted to live in an area with mixed demographics, but she didn’t realize many of the families in southeast Provo are not very welcoming to the influx of singles in the area.Provo City Council members Dave Harding, Gary Winterton and Dave Sewell held a town hall meeting on Oct. 24 to address concerns of young single professionals in Provo about the proposed zoning enforcement law that would make punishments harsher for singles living in family-zoned areas.The proposed zoning ordinance would make it easier for the city to enforce zoning laws by making the

From The Guardian 10. November 2015 here were, says Cat, perhaps one or two male students on her English degree. It was the same, she noticed, on her friends’ courses. “There were a lot of girls at my university,” she says. “You would look around tutorials or lectures and there would be one or two token guys.” While there are some degrees, particularly in science and engineering subjects, that are overwhelmingly filled with male students, the general trend in many countries is for more women to go to university than men. How great to have so many clever, educated young women spilling out every year, but there could be negative consequences, as a new book, Date-onomics, points
