There are so many dating sites online and strange as may seem there are many people spend money on this online dating site in hope to find their true love. Many succeed and many fail. Can you really find a true love in an online dating site? Why people prefer to find love online instead in real and meeting real people? Please share your thought and opinion.

Hi there!
I think people spend money to get something on on-line dating sites and some of them also do succeed. It depends what they are looking for, if they want to date someone for lust only, then they may not succeed. Finding a true and genuine fellow will require lots and lots of efforts from both the parties and if they are committed, they may get the partners of their choice. Have you tried any dating site?

I met my boyfriend of 6 year via online site. We met after 3 weeks of chatting and texting and calling and blahblah. Back then I found him was a ok guy and we started dating, falling in love, and now we're going to get married. People more and more addict to online dating site because they are lack of time and/or opportunities to meet someone in real life that suitable for them. I think online dating site itself is not bad, it makes people get more chances to find their true love.

Truly speaking, I do not believe in the funda of online dating. I think it is good for finding a mate for some period in your life as and when you need some mental and moral support. But I doubt if these sites can really give someone a life long soul mate. But yes, at the same time you cannot predict what is in store for you. But I think, there is no harm in giving it a try.

Well, I didn't use a dating site, but I did meet my boyfriend of over 3 years online. Ironically we both registered with "Gaia" around the same time, yet didn't meet until the end of that year. I was browsing threads and saw his response, and decided to message him [he was encouraging people to say hi]. He was also talking with two other girls, but eventually stopped talking with them to focus on our conversations. Eventually it went from email to phone, and from phone to real life. He moved to where I live to be with me. It's been a long distance/in person relationship as he's in a trade school where I can't see him very often [the school is 4 hours away].
I didn't expect to meet anyone online, but my cousin is trying to because she is self-conscious about her body. She wants someone to fall in love with her for her personality, not her looks. I agree - luckily my boyfriend liked my size and appearance, but that isn't so for everybody. I think meeting online can help make things less awkward, and it gives you more choices and chances to connect with someone.

well i think finding love online is not a bad idea , there is no harm in doing it , as when we meet someone we don't fall in love his face or appearance , we fall in love with what he says , with how much mature he is and stable in life and all this qualities can also be seen while chatting and after chatting and meeting in reality i think it will be ohk for the both the partied to further decide whether they want to continue the relation or need to understand first. so online love can also go for a long time.

I think online dating has a good and bad effect on a person. It depends on the person choice to try that kind of dating. Some do it for curiosity, to find other partner from a different race, and some are tired of looking dates available in their environment. I mean, they prefer this kind of dating for them for challenge and some are for fun.
It really depends on what is the real intention of the person. Some are successful, and some fails.
Finding true love is anywhere. It can be in different form of situation. Can be from your environment or other people. We do not know from where it will really come from.
Taking chances is a good way to know if it works for you or not. This will lead you to many possibilities and options. For, no one knows and exactly can find true love unless it happened and felt by that person for real.
