Chinanews, Beijing, Jan. 15 – A recent survey shows that over 80% of white collars in China have marriage problems, and it is even more difficult for female white collars to find appropriate marriage partners.

 

The survey, conducted by CTR Market Research, the largest research consulting firm in China, covers mostly single white collars aged 23 -30. Most of the young respondents attribute their marriage problem to “busy work” and “having little time to make friends with opposite sex.”

 

It also shows that many young people place high requirements for their marriage partners. Some worry about their marriage in future and some focus more on their work and spend less time looking for fun in their life. Some young people are introverted and do not enjoy being together with people of their opposite sex. Some work and live independently in a large city far away from their hometown, their parents and their relatives. In this case, their friends and relatives cannot help them in their life. Some young people do not take marriage issue seriously. All these have become constraints that delay white-collar people's marriage.

 

Information shows that 81% of the single white collars tried to find their marriage partners with the help of their friends or colleagues. 47% of them met their potential marriage partners as recommended by their parents and 10% by attending some kind of matchmaking activities.
