Men More Likely To Feel 'Love At First Sight'

Men fall in love just as often as women do and are more likely to experience love at first sight, a new survey has revealed.

By age 30, 58% of men who say they have been in love and believe in love at first sight have experienced it, compared to 51% of women.

The annual Singles in America study by Match.com also shows men are more likely to show their love and affection in public. 41% of men would be very comfortable kissing in public, versus 31% of women. 

Men are more likely than women to be willing to make a commitment to someone who has everything they are looking for in a partner, but whom they are not in love with (31% of men and 23% of women) and willing to make a commitment to someone who has everything they are looking for in a partner but whom they don't find sexually attractive (26% of men and 22% of women).

A working women is admired. Close to half (45%) of all men are turned off by a woman who "doesn't care about her career."

When it comes to cohabitation, men want to commit sooner than women. Contrary to popular belief, when dating a new partner, 46% of men and 26% of women would expect to move in together before they'd been dating someone for less than a year.

Men are far more concerned about their weight than their height. 55% of straight men and 63% of gay men are more concerned with their weight than their height (6% of straight men and 3% of gay men).
