Thanksgiving is meant to be a time to relax and be thankful for happiness, health, family, and friends. But how is that possible when your family makes passive-aggressive comments about your single status?

While we can’t prepare you for awkward dinner conversations over the current political climate or yet another conversation about why the Kardashians are famous, we can arm with some great stats for when your family asks why you’re still single:

• Looking for a great excuse to leave that awkward conversation with your distant cousin? Tell them The League saw a 15% spike in engagement last year on Thanksgiving eve!
• Since cuffing season began on November 5th, aggregate match rate on the League increased by 22%. Maybe pumpkin spice is an aphrodisiac?!
• 37% of our users say that they go out the night before Thanksgiving! Time to see if your ex from High School is back on the market.

Make sure all your single friends can survive their Thanksgivings at home as well: We’re celebrating Friendsgiving beyond just the dinner. Endorse your single friends by Nov 27th and you’ll be entered to win one of 50 complimentary, one year memberships (including the expedited review)! Send them an endorsement (Settings—>Endorse a Friend for The League)  You will only receive credit for an endorsement if a user creates a brand new League profile this week using the link you sent to them!  If they already were on the waitlist, no gravy!
