YOU'RE GOING TO DO WHAT ?

I can relate when your friends and family might ask you "You're going to do what ???" after you have happily announce you are going online to start dating again. You have mustered up the courage, wanted to try to be in the new millennium and are tired of the bars. Now you have to listen to all the questions. Is it safe ? You're not going to really meet them are you ? What if there picture doesn't match how they really look. Will you make sure you call me when you get there and get home? It almost makes you feel like internet dating is degrading and you are doing something terrible. The fact of the matter is those same questions could be asked of someone you meet out in public or in a nightclub; it just has been a more acceptable way, until now to meet available singles.

The next time you get questioned about your new endeavor of dating you can confidently reply that online dating has many more advantages over conventional dating for the following reasons:

·Online Dating offers more choices: there are millions of singles seeking partners on
the internet
·Provides better choices by searching for individuals who meet your criteria by age,
interests, values and background .
·Online Dating reaches across boundaries. You are not bound by your community
or state.
· Takes away some of the “guess work” about their motives. Since candidates usually
state in their profiles what type of relationship they are looking for (i.e. casual, dating,
long term commitment etc) you are more in control of what “type” of relationship you
are ready to have.

So go ahead, move forward with that dating site, let your mother or friend know that it is perfectly safe and acceptable, and most of all have a great time!
