Does anyone have experience with online dating? There was a time when online dating was a big hush hush. But since then it has been one of the most practical tools when it comes to meeting someone new.
There are many advantages to online dating. From www.dateseeker.net they gave a list of advantages. First, online dating can reduce anxiety buildup when it comes to first dates. Chemistry between the two persons may develop without them even meeting in real life at all. Then if things go well perhaps they can arrange to meet. Second (I find this very cute), there’s these flirtation button that the user can send to their person of interest. This is less awkward for the user and if you’re bashful in person this is a great feature to flirt without being intimidated. Lastly one more important advantage is variety! You can look up from either one to ten members at a time, check them out, their status, and what they do for a living. By doing this you can prequalify them before even initiating any form of contact with them.
There are some disadvantages as well; for example, they could be lying about themselves to sound more attractive. They could have a bogus profile picture that is not even them. Lame but true. They could be married but looking for you know what, so they turn to these sites for discretion. Also, there are a lot of creepers out there so they turn to these sites. So be cautious too when testing the waters of online dating.
Regardless of the disadvantage, many has found love and everlasting relationships online as well here. Internetdatingstories.com is a site where couples that have been successful share their experience. I’ve read a story about a recent widow of 40 years in marriage, sad and lonely went onto yahoo personals and found her happiness again. Regardless of the 24 years age difference, they made each other happy, she claimed he has never used her financially or emotionally in any way. She thanks this online service that she has found her happiness again. This is a sweet story and who knows you may have your own one day. I do. The story here.
You definatly have to be careful with online dating. There are so many predators out there. I think it's better for the older, more mature and safety conscience person than for the younger. I think it's more dangerous for the younger generation. My mom met her new husband online and he is awesome. I wish she would have found him years ago!
