Have you ever noticed that people tend to be really supportive and encouraging when you go through a break up? They’ll tell you things like your ex was no good for you, you could do better, and the kicker – there’s plenty of fish in the sea and the world is your oyster. While we may not be on board with the seafood colloquialisms, we can appreciate that people realize that you don’t have to settle for dating locally. When it comes to romance, you really can meet anyone from anywhere in the world if you wanted to. It’s all a matter of knowing where to look, but also how.

Flirt.com is excited to announce the release of our brand new tool that will help you meet people all over the world. Our dating map encourages folks from all over the world to learn a little more about the people in other countries, how they date, and other great facts about the dating demographic for that particular country.

This map will be incredibly useful for those who are going to study abroad, going on extended vacation (or even short ones!), or business trips. Of course, it’s also going to be useful if you plan on changing where you call home and moving to a completely new country.

Who is Flirt.com?

Before we talk about the map and why it’s going to be a game changer in the way singles meet and date, perhaps we should talk about ourselves first.

Here at Flirt.com, we don’t necessarily believe that you have to be in a committed relationship to be happy. We are firm believers that life is too short to settle for just anyone and if you have to date several people to meet that someone special, so be it.

Of course, we also believe that there is absolutely nothing wrong with meeting people just for a fun weekend without any strings attached. Too many people believe that if you meet someone on an online dating site, it’s because you’re looking to fall blissfully in love and all that mumbo jumbo. Not so! Here, we get that sometimes you just want to let your hair down and hang out with someone awesome for an evening (or maybe longer) and not feel like you have to explore possibilities of a relationship!

In short, Flirt.com is just a conduit of meeting fun and exciting people. We like to think of ourselves as facilitators of happiness for singles who are tired of their local dating scene and want to meet like-minded individuals who want the same thing.

What is the Flirt Dating Map?

Other popular dating sites will encourage their users to look for a compatible partner locally. Some of these sites make it difficult for their users to meet anyone outside of their area. Some sites won’t even show you possible matches if they aren’t even in your country! Now, take a second and think about how many possible matches you’re missing out on, just because whatever dating site you’re using isn’t willing to show you all of your matches! Pretty upsetting isn’t it? Especially if you pay for their services!

With our dating map, you’ll be able to see the countries where most of our users are from. Some of these countries include the common places like:

• United States

• United Kingdom

• Canada

• France

• Spain

However, we’ve got members from all over the world using our services! You can find people from places like:

• Argentina

• Brazil

• Norway

• South Africa

• Japan

• Australia

• …and so many more countries.

When you want to use our map, you’ll first see a welcome screen that will tell you how to use it – it really couldn’t be any simpler; just click on the map markers for the specific country that you’re interested in meeting people from. The marker will pull up a side bar with a bunch of great information about that dating in that country, but also what the demographic is like.

Let’s say you want to meet someone in the United States. You’ll want to look at the country and click on the heart with an American flag on it (each country is identified with a heart with the country’s flag on it – cute isn’t it??)

On the side bar, it will list the top 5 countries American men and women are reaching out too. American men are reaching out to singles in the Canada and the UK most frequently, while American women are reaching out to Australian or Canadian singles (to see the other three countries these folks contact, you’ve got to check out the map!).

What Else is on the Map?

Other than the top connections between countries, you’ll find other really useful tips and advice about what to expect while dating an American. For example, did you know that Americans often treat their dating lives like any other business venture and at some point during the date, conversation will end up with discussions about work?

We should probably point out that this no-nonsense approach of dating usually only happens for the first couple dates. Americans are incredibly career and future oriented, and they want to know how and where the person they are dating will fit into those plans. If that person doesn’t fit into those plans, they don’t want to waste time with the wrong person. It’s a pretty logical approach to dating, don’t you think?

If you aren’t an American but you want to date like one, there is also a brief section of useful dating hints that may help your first date more successful. One of the tips that you’ll learn is that because American’s are career and goal oriented, you’ll gain some major brownie points if you discuss your plans and career goals while on that date. To find out more about dating an American, you’ll just have to check out the map!

Gathering Our Data

So, you might be wondering where we come up with the information on the map. We certainly don’t make it up! No, we actually turn our members for their input. We’ve conducted several surveys where we asked our members questions about what type of dating tips and/or bits of dating advice they would offer a foreigner who wanted to go on a date with someone from that country. We also asked them what they thought foreigner’s would want to know about what it’s like dating in their country.

Sticking with the United States, when you go out with an American, you aren’t going to want to plan a fancy first date to an expensive restaurant and dressed to the nines. Instead, Americans prefer first dates that are low key and casual – like a coffee shop or happy hour for a round or two of drinks. Because American’s are pretty straight forward, these brief dates are all they need to decide if they’d like to see you again or if they’d rather not see you again. Oh, and while you’re on this simple date, you don’t have to worry about looking like you stepped out of a fashion magazine; you can wear nice clothing that you’d normally wear (unless you have a penchant for torn and/or stained up clothes. In that case, you better go shopping!).

Why Should You Use the Flirt Dating Map

There’s no denying that the internet is full of online dating sites. With online dating, you can meet anyone cool and interesting from the comfort of your home. You never have to embarrass yourself by hitting on someone at the club or bar and getting shot down. You can meet people that you would have never been able to if you were to just rely on traditional methods of dating.

Whatever your reason may be, be it you’re moving, you’re on a business trip, studying abroad, or just want to meet someone from a different culture, our dating map can provide you with the information you need to get your foot in the door.

Maybe you’ve got a business trip to Japan coming up and you’d like to meet a Japanese woman who could show you around. Our map will give you dating tips that will help you not make a fool of yourself in front of her.

Maybe you’re going backpacking through France in between semesters. With our map, you’ll understand how important love is in France and that it’s normal (sometimes even expected) to show up late for a date. For people who value punctuality, this bit of information may convince you that dating in France may not be the best choice for you – or at the least prepare you for a mild wait while waiting for your French date to arrive.

While our map isn’t going to tell you who you should date or the secrets to winning them over, it will help you navigate (and date!) your way around the world. Do yourself a favor and check out the map. If you find the information useful, sign up to become a member of Flirt.com to find someone awesome today!
