Have you heard of line "You're one in a million?" Apparently, there are around 8 million people in the world. So if you take away any idiomatic representation of this line, you are similar to at least eight people in the world. And if you are single this past Valentine's Day, there's no need to fret because seven other people suffered from the same dilemma that you've been through, at least that's what a certain survey says.

In a recent survey release by the WCAX, eight of ten youngsters are still single. The survey was conducted by InSites Consulting and saw the participation of 3,485 young adults from 13 different countries: the United States, Brazil, Russia, India, China, the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Sweden, Poland, Italy, the Netherlands and Belgium.

Based on the study, "only 1 out of every 5 of those aged 15 to 25 in the US are currently in a relationship. That is why the country, together with Turkey and India, occupy the top 3 positions of countries with the highest number of singles. In India the percentage of singles amongst youngsters is as high as 90%. Both in Russia (58%) and in Germany (62%) there are much fewer singles among the youngsters. For the occasion of Valentine day, InSites Consulting organised a global survey into the behaviour of youngsters as to relationships and sex."

Aside from that, the survey also found out that "half of the 15-to-25-year-olds in the US already went on a date without the actual intention of starting a relationship."

In Brazil, Germany, and Italy, at least six out of 10 people enter relationships but are not committed ti stay for a long time. When it comes to 'digital affair' the study also found out that 3 out of every 10 US youngsters (aged 15 to 25) have tried it while 10% said they are ready to try online dating soon.

According to Joeri Van den Bergh, co-founder and Gen Y expert at InSites Consulting, the growth in online dating was caused by the arrival of social dating apps.

"These past few months we have noticed an increase in the popularity of dating apps such as Tinder which allow to find a match rapidly and with little effort, without having to actually surf to a dating website. It goes quicker, is location-linked and is fully equipped to appeal to Millennials, who in the end are known for their efficiency and limited attention value."
