The new generation of women, known as SITCOMs, are looking for love online in a quest to find 'The One'
新一代女性被稱為SITCOMs,她們正在網(wǎng)絡(luò)愛情里尋找真愛。

A new group of women dubbed the SITCOMs (single in twenties, clinging on to memories) is becoming the fastest growing group looking for love online.
一批被稱為SITCOMs的新女性團(tuán)體(單身,20多歲,執(zhí)著于回憶),正成為尋找網(wǎng)絡(luò)戀情人群中增長速度最快的一群人。

They might be beautiful, have successful careers and seem like the perfect catch for any man - but they go quickly from one relationship to the next in the elusive search for The One.
她們美麗且事業(yè)有成,看起來會是任何男人的完美對象——但是令人難以捉摸的她們不斷從一段關(guān)系中過渡到另一段,只為尋找“那個對的他”。

And the reason they can’t find the perfect partner is because they just cannot get over the big love of their lives.
而且她們無法找到完美伴侶的原因,在于她們就是無法走出自己以前人生中那些深刻戀情。

The SITCOM tag is particularly pertinent because, observers say, these women's love lives resemble those that make up the meat of a television situation comedy.
觀察者認(rèn)為,SITCOM的標(biāo)簽于她們而言十分恰當(dāng)。這些女性的情感生活就類似于那些電視情景喜劇的腳本。

A new survey asked female and male members of a dating site the reasons why they haven’t found the right partner. The most popular answer was that the people they meet online do not match up to a previous lover.

A total of 41 per cent of women and 39 percent of men polled said they still had feelings for an ex-lover and this made it difficult to commit to a new partner.
共有41%的女性和39%的男性受訪者承認(rèn),他們對前任戀人仍有感情,并且這使得他們很難接受新戀人。

Other commitments were cited as reasons love had not blossomed, with 24 per cent of women polled saying they were too busy at work, and a further 29 per cent saying they didn’t like meeting new people in bars and clubs.
還有另外一些認(rèn)為是導(dǎo)致愛情未能開花結(jié)果的原因,有24%的女性受訪者說她們工作太忙了,另外還有29%的說她們不喜歡在酒吧和俱樂部結(jié)識新朋友。

Sadly for almost a third or men and women a big reason for not finding new love was not having enough friends to help them mix with new people.
可悲的是幾乎有三分之一的男性和女性未能找到新戀人的一大重要原因,是他們沒有足夠多的朋友來幫助他們介紹認(rèn)識新朋友。
