"Oh, I wouldn't try online dating! It simply isn't for me!..." I am quite sure you have heard that line before. Perhaps it may be too familiar because the idea has crossed your mind several times, but you just kept shoving it off.
Well, there are countless testimonials out there providing both the positive and the negative feedback about their experiences. In this article however, let us look at seven reasons why many do try it and why they are still into the online dating scene.
1. They are simply too busy to meet other people with their current work schedules. They wake up, go to work, then go back home. Especially when they are in high responsibility positions, they turn in more work hours, rendering them too tired to even engage in a social life. There are also those professions that require grave yard shifts such as those in the medical field, overseas call center operations and the like.
2. They have tried the old routine but it simply did not work for them. They have tried to frequent the social scenery, but have met no one they would truly be interested in. One knows you would have to spend considerably on yourself and in outfits when you do so, but for those who consider that an investment, they have yet to see the results come in.
3. They like the option of being able to select potential dates but not necessarily meet them when they are still uncomfortable. When you are in your private space with your laptop, you can consult your friends (...even a pet cat, or dog ) for immediate and first impressions about the photos and profiles posted. That's hard to do in an actual live setting.
4. They find it easier to exit the situation online than in face to face encounters. In actual meet-ups, you'd have to change your contact information, or even your place of work just to avoid people you do not like to associate with anymore. Some even go to the extent of obtaining a temporary restraining order. Online however, provided you haven't actually met, you can end communications subtly and effectively.
5. They have actual friends, family and acquaintances who have tried various services and were happy with it. So, if it worked for them, it might work for you as well, right?
6. They want to multiply the avenues in which they are able to meet others. Who knew that there was this very attractive prospect from a nearby county, an adjacent state or even overseas? The possibilities are endless when you extend your horizons. You are able to meet people whom you would have never met otherwise.
7. They are able to define what they are looking for. It is not exactly a wish list, but it may be the closest that you may get. You are bound to get most of what you specify and that certainly does not hurt!
Online Dating is considered taboo for some but it surely has opened many possibilities and experiences for a lot more. It may be the right time, you consider this as an option.
