We’ve all tried our hand at many the dating site and app, but often it just becomes frustrating and annoying.

Now, a survey conducted by dating site, Just Ask Me Out, has discovered what is holding those prospective dates back – messaging!

Rather than going back and forth in messages with someone for days, even weeks with no mention of a date, Just Ask Me Out’s no messaging policy has proved a hit on the London dating scene. This no-messaging policy means that you and the person of your fancy or compatibility have no choice but to head out there and meet up, cutting out digital small talk and time that could be spent really getting to know one another in person. 

Founder of the site, Alex Rowley had this to say on the topic of messaging in the dating world: “Londoners have spoken and the results of our survey indicate that singles are sick and tired of dating sites that encourage endless back and forth messaging. Rather than spend days, weeks or even months on end wondering who is going to make the first move, Just Ask Me Out revolutionises the dating game and makes sure a face-to-face meet up is organised from the word go.”

The site has proved a huge hit as it cuts out the small talk and sometimes awkward digital flirting – and has even won Best Up & Coming Dating Site 2015 at the iDate Awards in the US recently.

So if you’re ready to ditch the online dating scene and really actually get out there on dates – this is the dating site for you!
