Opinions on online dating...

Okay, so you probably all know about online dating, like eHarmony and what not. I honestly don’t agree with it. I believe true love comes in person and from the heart, not from a screen. Sitting at a desk staring at the computer isn’t the right way to find love, in my opinion. You have to go outside and meet people, explore the world, and eventually you’ll find the right person. Anyways, for all you know this person can be disguised as someone they’re really not. Who wants that? Not to mention, this person could be a creep. Does anyone else agree?

Agreed 100%. This is the internet, and it's a dangerous place. There are p3doph1les out there.

Well, with new technology comes new possibilities. If you really can't find the right person, not all hope is lost. I don't really have anything against it. As long as you can meet in person, An online relationship isn't any different from a 'real' one.

Not as in the entire relationship being online, just meeting online, then meet in person in real life and carry on from there.

Re: Opinions on online dating...

As long as A) Your not marrying a tablet computer, or B) Having your marriage ceremony in WoW, I really could care less if people meet up in real life or online. It's those people's choices, and some prefer one over the other.

It's like a dietary supplement. If you can meet people online that's alright, but you can't substitute that for real-life meetings and conversations.

This, but of course, if you want to, it's just as well. Perfectly fine.

Re: Opinions on online dating...

I agree that doing the dating part online isn't good, but I don't see a problem with finding somebody on a dating website and meeting them in person.

Re: Opinions on online dating...

Hmm... My feelings toward online dating are neutral, I feel that it is neither bad nor good.  Online dating sites like Eharmony are a simple way of organising meetings with people similar to you, without the effort going out and searching for them, making you seem like a social outcast.  To others, however, these same sites end up being a problem for them so they decide that the people that use them aren't as 'cool' as them, even though they're very similar to each other.

Re: Opinions on online dating...

PandaGuy, I can see why you are asking Scratch about online dating because absolutely everyone on the site has tried doing it and are experts on the subject

I know a couple who meant through online dating. The husband is 30 or so years older than the wife.

Re: Opinions on online dating...

You have to realize this is a bridge to GOING OUTSIDE AND MEETING PEOPLE. This just helps with that process and I am all for it.

The internet provides access to the whole world. What if the person who is right for you is in some foreign country?
