Survey: 31% of Singles in Indonesia, Get More Pressure to Get Married from Surrounding Society Than from Family

People tend to chase their goals and ambitions during a productive age. After everything has been achieved, having a lifetime partner that’s fit and then building our own happy family is everyone’s dream. Even though it seems so easy, having a lifetime partner that suits our criteria is not a piece of cake. Especially if there is pressure from family and surrounding people to get married immediately, it makes Singles tend to feel burdened.

Lunch Actually has launched survey results from 640 Singles in Indonesia. The data show that 31% of Singles get the pressure to get married immediately from surrounding society, and 29% get the same pressure from family. It means that Singles in Indonesia get the pressure to get married from surrounding society rather than from their own family.

This current condition makes the possibility of Singles meeting new people even harder. Getting rid of the pressure of getting married faster seems impossible.

Virtual dates are one of the choices for Singles to prevent spreading the virus Covid-19 that could happen during the actual dates. Virtual dating can also give Singles more advantages, such as less energy and less budget burned to go to the dating place.

But since it’s the next level thing to have a virtual date, the first step we need to do is find the contact or details of a person that matches our criteria, which is problematic if we don’t have activities that include many audiences.
