Does Online Dating work?

The World is an ever shrinking one, courtesy of our old good friend called the Internet. So how can it get any smaller? The answer not only lies in social networking sites such as Facebook and Myspace, but online dating. From the depths of a community full of black hat hackers, malicious spyware and enough viruses to keep the entire world behind closed doors, can we really trust anyone on the Internet? The prospect of a distant relationship in the past let alone an online relationship, has neither been the most traditional, or one of the most intimate dating possibilities available to an individual. It is for these very reasons that people can choose to point the finger and laugh. The reality is a concept which has headed in the wrong direction, and misguided by these people and fake partners half way across the world.

The word "Love" itself is an abstract noun. In other words, something that cannot be physically sensed by a human being. This idea I think is completely symbolic of online dating. If love is nothing but a human concept, how cannot anyone be in love? After all, Love is without boundaries right? Some people may find an online relationship humorous, but these people are the ones missing out on an opportunity. The beauty of online dating, is how much selection you have. You literally have a selection of thousands, and a bunch of renown sites to choose from. Life is never ideal, and Love doesn't always come in neat packages, like a close friend or an instance of Love at first sight. If you want to find a perfect match, you are just as likely, if not more likely to find it on the Web contrary to belief.

I myself have voyaged into online dating during this last week, and I can say it just takes some time to find the right person, and even the right website. I hope others won't feel restrained to do the same (if you are single of course) and see for yourself how well it does work out for you. It is not for everyone, and at times it can be a gamble. Persistence does pay dividends though. Spend a good deal of time getting to know people, ensure you choose a more serious site, and you should be able to distinguish between a cardboard cutout and a possible partner.
