    Why online dating is so popular

    Why do people use online services? There are a number of reasons. One of them is the fact that one can stay anonymous. Many "daters" like to take part in online dating communities as an anonymous member and there are no rules against this: A great way to join these services without sharing personal details with others. Safety is also one of the reasons. There definitely are a number of safety issues when dealing and talking with others online. But, when meeting a new "friend" offline, you can't be absolutely sure whom you are dealing with, what he or she is interested in, what the person does in his/her spare time, if he/she is dangerous and so on. Online can be safer: you can communicate with someone for months, even years before ever meeting the member in person. This gives you a chance to really get to know someone before jumping into a relationship or friendship. And it can be done from the safety and comfort of your own home. Some dislike going out to bars, clubs or other social places as they might feel shy or otherwise uncomfortable. Online dating gives the opportunity to meet new people, make friends all over the world and build a relationship without going to unknown places. This can be very helpful for those who prefer not to go out. Another benefit is that you meet like minded people. When going to a bar or club, you meet persons who are there for many different reasons and with different intentions. One can't be sure if they are there because of a drinking problem or because they want to leave their partner or because they just wanne have a good time or whatever reason there may be. When using an online dating service, you can be almost sure of one thing: the ones you "talk" to are online to meet a partner or at least to make new friends. These are just a few of the many benefits of online dating services. The best way to find out how it works and what the advantages are is to simply start using one..

    Why do people use online services?
