Dating on the Tube
Filed Under: Travel
For all you Londoners out there this story was on metro.co.uk yesterday. Seems that the Tube is the place to be if you want to find love. . . .
Forget ‘misery line’ – the Northern Line should be dubbed the tunnel of love.
In a result that will no doubt add to its overcrowding, the Tube line has been found to have the sexiest passengers.
More than a third of people thought its combination of ’spiky-haired indie kids’ and ‘hot city types’ gave it the edge over other lines.
But there were major faults reported on the Hammersmith and City line – it had the least attractive passengers.
Tube users spotted an average of four fanciable people every day, the survey found.
Half admitted to having some sort of ‘Tube tryst’, where they swapped numbers, dated or had sex.
One in 100 even married someone they met on the Underground.
But nine in ten admitted to a ‘missed moment’ when they did not take things further with a fellow passenger.
For those who did pluck up the courage, among the worst chat-up lines was ‘I bet you’re getting off at Angel’, the survey by Qype found.
I reckon all Londoners either meet their partners on public transport or at work. Nobody has time to meet anyone anywhere else.Â
Also, I don’t understand why the Northern Line would have the sexiest passengers. I’m sure other lines have ’spiky-haired indie kids’ and ‘hot city types’. What sets it apart from the others?
