Finding a suitable romantic partner seemed nearly impossible for Mary. She felt uncomfortable with the singles scene in clubs, and most of her friends were married, leaving her with fewer single connections.
While she was familiar with online dating and often saw its advertisements, Mary hesitated to dive in, imagining it to be a drastic step. She pondered what the experience would be like, how she might find someone online, and what potential risks could arise.
If this scenario sounds familiar, you might be considering online dating to meet someone special.
Technology increasingly shapes our lives, reducing face-to-face interactions. It's no surprise that millions have turned to online dating, opting for it over waiting for a chance encounter.
But what have researchers found about online dating behavior?
A study highlighted by CBS News revealed that 15% of Americans with internet access have visited dating sites, with 27% being 18-29 years old. Clearly, online dating is a popular activity.
The same study showed that while 33% of unmarried internet users viewed online dating as a safe way to meet people, 34% knew someone who had a negative experience.
According to a BBC News report, online dating empowers women, allowing them to express themselves more openly than in face-to-face interactions, thanks to the anonymity it offers. Could this increase their chances of finding an ideal relationship?
Professor Helen Petrie mentioned in a BBC interview, "There are people who lack interpersonal social skills and would find it very difficult to meet people in bars. They may find it easy to meet in an internet room, but they still have the problem of meeting them face to face and if they have gone too far with the internet relationship, they may find that traumatic."
The anonymity of online romance can encourage exaggeration or deception. While some argue that we often hide things early in a relationship to put our best foot forward, the internet makes it easier to conceal aspects like facial expressions, income, marital status, and even criminal records.
If, like Mary, you're finding it tough to meet someone in the real world and are considering online dating, it's crucial to use caution and common sense. Be mindful of what you share about yourself, and verify as much information as possible before meeting or contacting anyone in person that you've met online. Always ensure your safety and never meet someone alone.
