In today’s digital age where living without the internet is
possibly a life not worth living, opening the door to online dating is
really an emergence in a change in human behaviour to embrace social and
digital technology, to meet new people. That sounded super smart (*brushes
shoulders*).
The concept of joining a dating website can seem a little
daunting, desperate and demeaning. Personally, I find it fun and amusing at
times. Don’t get me wrong, like any girl I hope to meet my prince but in the
process meet a few friendly / weird frogs too. I could write another blog post
on the weird, outrageous and somewhat inhumane creatures I have met or been
messaged by, so shall leave that for another day.
When I first joined a dating website it resulted in the
following: 630 interests in first 3 weeks and over 4,000 profile views! Let me
add to the stats – 300 interests were in 48hours! Yes – I am boasting, but even
Cheryl Cole or Kim Kardashian wouldn’t get that! I did feel like a celebrity
checking through my fan mail at times, but it was a tough job and someone had
to do it!
Joking aside, here is my theory to help you decide if online dating is
right for you.
