According to Canoodle.com, shared interests, above anything else, helps a couple's relationship.
One of the main interests both people have to share are their views for the future, with two-thirds of woman saying a relationship will not work if they had different feelings than their partner about starting a family. 49% of men agreed.
Elsewhere, just under two-thirds of participants said that while looks can be important, that alone does not make a relationship work.
A third said they look for someone with the same interests as them when looking for a potential partner, while four in 10 claimed that having a vastly different career to their partner can have a negative impact on the relationship, with more men than women admitting they would struggle if they led a different career path to their partner.
Sean Wood, Communications Director at Cupid Plc, said: "No one wants to date a carbon copy of themselves, but a shared hobby, or shared views can go a long way towards a long and happy relationship.
"The majority of Brits said that if they didn't have a single shared interest when on a first date with someone, they wouldn't go on a second date.
"Yet, despite interests being important, 89 per cent of people said that compromise is also key to making a relationship work."
