The actress's feisty character has concentrated on her new responsibilities at The Woolpack and concern for son Aaron (Danny Miller) in recent months following her ill-fated relationship with Carl King (Tom Lister).
However, in an interview with itv.com, Pargeter promised that there will be new stories involving Chas's personal life in 2012.
Pargeter commented: "Chas and men - where do you start, really? She hasn't been very successful. She's had a fair range, really. She's gone from copper, to businessman - a bit of everything.
"Her ideal man is just somebody who can keep up with her, someone with a bit of a feisty side. I think she's probably found him - but she's definitely not still with him."
She continued: "I wouldn't say Chas is unlucky in love, really - she's misunderstood. She's a hard one. I mean, who could go out with Chas and be able to deal with her? You don't know if she's going to slap you or kiss you. Fingers crossed she'll find someone soon.
"There's going to be quite a few things possibly man-stroke-men [related] coming up this year. It should be a lot of fun. And more turmoil!"
Emmerdale fans have seen a spark develop between Chas and John Barton in recent weeks. However, any romance for the pair would be short-lived as James Thornton - who played John - has filmed his final scenes for the soap.
