Match and the Kinsey Institute have released the 15th annual Singles in America study. This year's study found that nearly half of singles (49%) have fallen for someone they weren't initially attracted to. Among those who keep an ideal partner checklist, 46% have fallen for someone who didn't fit it!

So what turns a first impression into something more? According to the study, great conversation, followed by shared interests and shared values, is the leading reason.

These findings show that clear standards can coexist with openness. Dr. Justin Garcia, Executive Director of the Kinsey Institute, said, "There's an interesting tension in the data. Singles today have clear expectations for a partner, but love still has the ability to surprise them."

Zety, a resume-building platform, conducted a survey of 1,023 U.S. employees on whether LinkedIn is becoming a space for dating. The survey found that 26% of respondents believe using LinkedIn to pursue romantic relationships is acceptable, while 65% believe it could harm their professional reputation. The results were mixed, though 48% said they find LinkedIn profiles more trustworthy than dating app profiles.

As a matchmaker, this is worth paying attention to. Some matchmakers already run a background check process as part of vetting a match or a client, and use LinkedIn as part of that. LinkedIn can also provide more than career information about someone, it's a quick way to see if someone is who they say they are. So, you shouldn't skip LinkedIn when you do your background check!
