On line dating no longer has the stigma attached to it that was oh-so evident a few years ago. Nowadays around a third of the population use or have used on line dating and friendship websites in a bid to enhance their social circle and/or to find love and romance.
Certainly, it could be said that on line dating is a fool proof way to really meet the people that you want to meet, compared to, say meeting someone in a club or bar.
And because the website is there 24/7, it means that people who work shifts or have to be at home to look after their dependents can still make new friends.
The other beauty of internet dating is that you can actually get to know a person before you go on a date with them. How many times have you met someone briefly who you are attracted to and find interesting only to go on date and find that they aren't what you expected at all?
At least with on line dating you have the beauty of time to actually get to know someone and while it is not a fail safe way of only physically meeting up with that 'perfect' person, it certainly helps.
Many on line dating sites now have chat rooms and even organised group events, meaning you can extend your social circle quite dramatically.
And you get to meet people from all walks of life. There is no set type of person who uses online dating and certainly anyone who does use friendship and dating sites isn't 'sad' or a 'nerd'.
Particularly for women, it is the way forward in dating. There are less risks meeting up with someone who you have already gotten to know online as you can get a feel for what they are like before going on date.
On line dating is a great way to have fun and meet new people and it certainly beats shouting to be heard at someone in a bar or club!
