According to the article online dating is destroying love and benefiting those who want to find love.
A blogger named ‘Jennifer’ born in 1969 claims “You couldn't do this until now. You went on waiting and waiting for your Prince, and you still had a long wait ahead of you, because he didn't know you were waiting, poor thing. Now you're on the net, and everyone knows it. It can't fail to work. All you have to do is look." She clearly makes it seem as though online dating is not destroying love but only a great tool for single people to find love. It also appears that it’s a new trend in today’s society which everyone is familiar with, the reason being that he or she may have experienced waiting for their ‘perfect companion’ but gave up and decided to turn to online dating as a quick and easy way of finding love.
A new survey taken by psychologists at the University of Rochester in the US, conclude that online dating is the second most common way of starting a relationship – after meeting through friends. This highlights the immensity online dating has a role in people’s lives and “The internet holds great promise for helping adults form healthy and supportive romantic partnerships, and those relationships are one of the best predictors of emotional and physical health.” A psychologist says. Some may disagree and say that these relationships formed from online dating could be physically destroying love, not all relationships are healthy and supportive. In fact these relationships could be unhealthy and there could be many problems, based on abuse, depression ect. Due to the simple reality that you met a stranger online and were obvious to their ‘dark past’
Moreover, it is apparent that not all online dating is successful and not everyone can find their ‘true love’ "When you look at their profiles, they're all the same," wails channelchris in her
