36% of Canadian Women met their partner through a friend
?Seventy-three per cent of Canadians believe the best way to meet new

to business anymore. One in three Canadian women (36%) met their
current or last significant other through a friend.?
20% met their spouse on the job

think the workplace is a good place to meet someone, in truth, 20%
actually met their significant other while on the job.

wedding ? although they don't expect a relationship to last long.
Among Californian singles, only 3 percent are still with the person
they met at a wedding, while Minneapolis men reported a better success
