Most young people under thirty, because they have grown up in the computer age, have a lot of different ideas and opinions when compared to older people. One of these opinions is the use of Dating Agencies online to find a partner. Let's face it, if you are thirty plus, then you will remember the stigma and sense of failure attached to having to use a third-party to find yourself a date. You will also be a little bit afraid that the majority of people using an online dating site will be slightly strange or have some type of social disorder. Well, for all of those who didn't know it; online dating is now considered the best way to safely and logically find a partner, and statistically one in three couples met their partner using this method. Another interesting statistic, is that married couples who met through a matchmaking service have less chance of splitting up, than those who met through a more traditional method. So what are the benefits of searching for a partner online, and why should I take advantage of them?Compared to the more traditional methods of finding a partner, online dating is great for people who don't like to go out and meet new people and/or are shy. Using your computer in the comfort of your own home, you can browse through other members on site at your own pace, and decide if you want to contact them; likewise when someone contacts you, it is your decision whether to reply. Ok, you could argue that the same thing applies when you are out in the real world, but it is much harder "face to face," to begin talking to a complete stranger, or reject someone's advances.
Online, both men and women are equal and can choose to be passive and wait for another member to contact them, or go out and find someone.
Online dating is less expensive than going clubbing or down to the pub. For the majority of sites, initial membership is free, and most people will check out the membership for a particular site before committing to the membership fee, which is usually less for a year then a night out at a club.
There is a more logical feel to online dating. Imagine if you walked into the local disco, and everybody in there had signs above their heads telling you their likes and dislikes, and what sort-of a person they were looking for. Wouldn't that be easy? A matchmaking site is just like that, because you can read about another member before you contact them, and also you can safely assume that if someone is a member, that they are looking for a new relationship, in the disco this is now always clear as some people have just come out to be with friends, and are most even remotely looking to start-up a relationship.
So I rest my case; online dating is the growth industry of the 21st Century, and rightly so, because it is safe, economical and lots of fun. So yes, off you go and join a site today.
