Coupled with the fact that these people are obviously willing to go on dates since they've signed up to use such a service in the first place makes it a fairly convient system to use.

On the other hand, a good deal of social interaction is lost due to Internet dating. Repore (sweet cowboy Jesus that's a horrible typo) built with the other person before the question of even going on a date is asked is lost. Alongside that, it's hard to trust the information relayed via some of these sites due to integrity issues of the people filling out the forms.

I'm just curious and I'd thought I'd ask the good-minded, passionate, flame-throwing people on JF.
Internet Dating is become increasingly fashionable now. People don't feel like going out, having a good time and getting to know someone naturally.

They'd rather scroll up a log and get on a quick shag. Also, them Adulfinder adverts are all over the bloody place.

Yeah, all in all Internet Dating has become a norm. What next Holographic girlfriends?

=D
