Poll about internet dating?Is it ok to meet your future partner online,given there are some really good?

quality sites online nowadays dedicated to marriage etc.


As traditionally i would meet someone in real life,but it seems more and more people are joining dating sites,so the stigma of internet dating may be vanishing,what do u think?


People generally use the sites if they are shy,workaholics,just a different dating alternative which is more convienent from home.

I used to be against it myself. I thought it wasn't a natural way of meeting someone. I got bored with my single life one day and decided to give it a try. I met my boyfriend 6 months ago on Yahoo personals. We are perfect for each other :)
Reply:I met my current boyfriend online, though not through a dating website. For this type of situation, I really think of it as no different than, say, pen pals, for past generations. Of course you see a lot of hype in the media about the dangers of meeting people online, as they could be murders, rapists, etc, but so could that cute girl you pick up at the bar.





As far as dating websites go, the taboo is rapidly dissapearing, mostly due to effectiveness shown on tv/ internet commercials. As being of a social race, most of us do need affection, and when we are deprived of it we seek it out though many means possible. Also, because there are so many different e-dating sites, there seems to be a certain type of site for every person.





One of the biggest advantages of internet dating sites is for homosexuals. Often times it is difficult for a single gay to spot other gays just walking down the street, especially those too shy to attent gay/lesbian bars. All GLBT dating websites can help aid those who need it meet people of their same orientation without the akward, "I was just wondering... Are you gay?" question to a prospective partner.
Reply:I think online dating is really good. Given that I'm a single mom with 2 jobs and have school, I did not have time to go out and meet someone. I met a great guy on singles and we have been seeing each other for a while now and within the next month we are moving in together. It is convienent for people that have alot going on or for someone who lives in a small town that does not have alot of options for meeting people.
Reply:They also use those sites because of the certain amount of secrecy it gives them. If you have one, call a dating service in your town and arrange an interview. I don't trust internet dating. Too risky.
Reply:Ofcourse it's ok!
Reply:Of course its okay.





You should be too happy with meeting them to care what others think about how you first "met" :)
Reply:I have met two boyfriends online - one relationship lasted a year but did not work out long-term; the other, well, this month will be the sixth anniversary of when we met. So naturally _I_ think internet dating works out ok. So does my brother, who met his wife online, and my best friend, who met her husband online. I met my guy in a chat room for a tv show we both are fans of, my friend met her husband on Match.com. Using a dating site has its advantages, but there are also advantages to meeting all kinds of people online for discussion of mutual interests, making lots of friends, and then having a friendship spark into romance. n That is a tried and true strategy for online dating, as well as not-online dating.
Reply:I think it's OK. I have a friend who has got a pretty ladyf rom a dating site called millionairecupid.com last DEC. She is really a great lady. So I'm also trying to search my princess online.
Reply:And why would it not be "ok"?
