"Wow, you look so different from your profile."


Finding that special someone has been rather tough. Everyone has such busy schedules it's starting to be hard to have a relationship with. A great deal of people started to flock to these dating sites. Online dating is where individuals connect and contact other individuals over the internet in the hopes to start up either a friend or romantic relationship. There are many websites, which provide members with a profile that includes their personal information. Users use the profiles to match themselves with desired love interests.

It has become common for online dating websites to provide webcam chats between members in order to get to know one another. Online dating could be considered a form of social networking because users create a profile and start to interact with other user, but here the users have a goal in mind: find some one for a relationship.

I find fault in online dating. maybe it is because i believe in the old-fashion dating. I mean how can you real KNOW someone on the internet. In class we talked about putting the wrongs signals out. There is a serious lack of trust in the other members, on whether the information the put forth is real or fake. There are those wackos who pose as singles but really they are looking for someone to have an affair with. My aunt nancy tried one of the dating sites. She finally decided to meet up with him. When she arrived at the resturant for her date, the guy ended up being in a wheelchair. My aunt was taken back because this man left out the detail about being handicapped.

Even though online dating scene has grown, how can you create a real relationship by means of the internet? A real relationship is based on honesty and truth. I just can't believe those commercials, which show couples who met online and made it work.
