THE GOOD SIDE:

• You can choose to join any dating site that you think is safe and reliable.

• It is a fast and easy method where you can chat with the person online instead of sending snail mail as it was done in earlier time. You don’t even have to worry about dressing up and looking good for your date.

• It is easy to find information about the particular person of interest and investigate more to find out all details about them.

• Online dating is a method by which you can easily save a hole in your pocket. It is inexpensive and you can save money in the initial stages of getting to know the person. For example, if you want to send a card, send an e-card.

• If you are not comfortable and not compatible with the relationship you can always end the connection at your convenience. There is no compulsion that you have to stick with whom you meet.

• Most of these online dating services are safe and have a security licence agreement.

THE BAD SIDE:

• Dating through the net just does not give you the feeling you are supposed to feel when you are in love. It is a very unreal situation and you cannot judge your feelings towards a person you haven’t even met.

• You never know if someone is providing the right information about themselves unless you have some proof of it. Through the internet you can only believe what is told to you. People can make fake promises and escape by changing their identity.

• Though the online dating service site maybe safe, you can never tell how a person really is. It can lead to someone harassing you or causing you mental stress which will affect you.

• Online dating is a risky affair. You take it at your own risk.
