I was upset to find out that a woman, who was reported missing in Utah, was found dead in her own car, at a motel in Missouri on Monday night. This woman was a nurse. She had a family and many friends who loved her dearly. She met a man on the Internet, and started to date him. After a couple months he moved in with her. When they broke up he harassed her, causing her to start the process for getting a protective order against him. It was then that she went missing. Her ex boyfriend was arrested for her death. Internet dating is here to stay, I believe, because it is an easy way for people to meet. Especially people who find themselves single later in life, and who have families and careers, and need a way to start dating again. How can people protect themselves when meeting people on the Internet? Do you think it is generally a more dangerous way to meet potential partners? Do you think there are ways to spot the ones who are likely to harm you? If you want to read more about this particular incident, Google Deborah Jones/Michael Doyel. I am unable to paste a link here.

Wow. That is horrible I don't really get into that whole internet dating thing. I'll rather meet a person face to face the first time so I can get whether I like them or not or whether they have a good vibe. Then from there we can learn all kinds of stuff from each other. It's hard to tell from the internet whether someone is good or bad because all you are doing is talking to them it's not like you can see them or anything like that.
