| Are People Who Use Internet Dating Losers? |

A few years ago I remember the looks my friend Sarah would get when she mentioned she'd been trying online dating sites. Admittedly, at the time, I thought she must be desperate. Couldn't she meet anyone in 'real' life? Didn't she ever talk to people at work or at parties? I judged her actions and concluded that she was either a bit weird or socially inept. Of course, you know I wouldn't be writing about this if she had never met anyone...sure enough, she met someone online and fell in love. He didn't live in Bahrain either, he lived in her town! Just one experience such as this in your own group of friends is enough to make you reconsider your rushed judgments. So, could online dating really be the answer? Or, is best to just stick with the traditional method of meeting people, even though it hasn't worked out for you yet? Well, let's say you're occupied with work all day , you go out a couple of times a week with your usual group of friends, and the rest of the time you're doing chores and sleeping; realistically, how many new people are you going to come across? Even if you managed to date, or even chat beyond pleasantries with one new person a week, how many of those are likely to strike up any kind of connection with? Maybe one in a hundred, and that's if you're lucky. At that rate, it would take you two years to even meet someone you could fall for. So, what if you want to speed up the process? You do the logical thing and search a database of millions of people on a dating site. Isn't it still a bit like shopping for a laptop on Amazon?! Isn't it less 'real' than bumping into someone at a party? Is email less 'real' than talking? Be honest, which do you do more of these days? Be still more honest, which mode of communication would you prefer when meeting someone for the first time? This was the main factor that converted me. Talking to someone new that you like the look of is hard! Actually, initiating dialogue is way easier online. No more stuttered introductions or lame chat-up lines. You can think carefully through what you say and how you're coming across. In conclusion, a long time ago, online dating appeared to me like a last resort for lonely people. Now though, I'm convinced that it's certainly the best place to start. Let's say you meet ten new potentials per week as a result of using online dating sites - even if only one of those turns out to be eligible, you've enhanced your chances of meeting someone by 1000% over the natural method I mentioned earlier! You can't argue with that! |
