My uncle and I were talking about dating websites such as match.com at Christmas last year. My uncle is in his 30’s and newly single, and his love life has not been the center of his concerns. He is starting a career in Real Estate, and in today’s economy it is extremely difficult for him and has proved insanely time-consuming. Many of his friends are married, and not going to bars looking to find women anymore. He has been unsure of where to find someone and has decided to try using an Internet dating site such as match.com in hopes to find a spark with someone.
You may be surprised to know that 1 in 5 relationships start online, according to match.com. Dating websites are a world of their own. There are articles written about what type of profile picture on a dating website attracts the most men/women, etc. Dating websites have become a huge part of dating today, especially with the mid 30’s crowd.
You may be interested also to hear that one of my family friends got divorced. Once her two children got older, she became lonely and decided to make a profile on match.com. Two years and many dates later she married a man who sent her a message on match.com about going out for a date. You never know what can happen.
If you think about it, these sites should save people time. Instead of weeding out people who won’t click with you over a span of dates and experiences, a dating website can attempt to take someone not compatible with you out of the picture for you. Plus, every person on these websites is looking for someone- they all have that in common.
