Business Wire, Nov 28, 2007

TORONTO -- According to a new survey from Meet Market Adventures -- a leading provider of events, experiences, getaways and travel for busy singles -- 86 percent of singles would invite a significant other to spend the holidays with their family after dating less than one year. Further, 22 percent said they would extend the invitation after only three months of dating. The survey was conducted among a sample of over 16,000 single adults living throughout the United States and Canada.

"It is clear that our dating culture is in sync with today's fast-paced society," says Travis Hartley, Founder of Meet Market Adventures. "While 'meeting the parents' used to be a major step for most couples, today people are inviting their significant others home for the holidays early on in the relationship."

Meet Market Adventures also queried singles about their office holiday party. The data showed that 72 percent of singles will attend their office holiday party solo, while 15 percent will bring a friend and 13 percent will have a date.
