5 years or so ago online dating might not have been a concept you felt too comfortable considering and certainly the whole idea was generally met with a sense of ambivalence. These days however, in our increasingly internet savvy society, it seems everyone is doing it and it's the way forward for finding your beloved.
People are busy, often too busy to meet potential partners in conventional ways and certainly when you get to a certain age, it starts to feel like everyone is coupled up, getting married and popping out babies. If you find you are still single it can be quite disconcerting to be admist all this change. Suddenly you begin moving from a place of wondrous hope and countless possibilities, to seriously worrying if you will ever find the one!
You have met all your mates' mates, and their mates' mates, and their mates' mates' mates...and suffice to say none of them float your boat. You are running out of single friends to go out 'on the pull' with you and nothing ever seems to come to fruition from those strangers you exchange numbers in bars with anyway. You are too shy to just approach people in day to day life and you are not comfortable with getting involved with people at work, 'don't sh*t were you eat' and all that. So what options are you left with?
I would say online dating is a great way to get you out of your singledom rut and back into your groove. There is something very honest and committed about the type of person who will make the effort to put in the time and money to get a profile together and do the work to email people they are interested in online. Mostly you will find people who are genuinely looking to find someone special to have a relationship with.
The point is you don't know who is out there till you get out there and have a look. And now you don't even have to get dressed up and do your hair and make up to do it, you can get out there from the comfort of your own home. After all you are fabulous and looking for love, what's to say there isn't someone as equally fabulous and single like you online right now, just waiting for you to click on 'favourite' 'like' or 'fan' by their picture...
