My friend quest in finding a suitable partner for romance seemed impossible. She found the singles scene at clubs to be uncomfortable and her social circle seemed to consist of more married friends with a shrinking amount of singles.
Although she had heard of internet dating and saw the ads, she had hesitated to take what she imagined was a rather drastic step. What would her experiences be like? How would she find someone online? What were the risks?

I found there are many reasons to use the internet to find a mate.
In my case,I find it very difficult to meet new people,I have depression which makes me quite shy,so it is hard to get to know someone,when you can't find words.
with the net,you can get to know someone enough to be able to talk,after you figure you know someone enough to be open with them,and as you get to see them from pictures exchanged,it is much easier to meet face to face.
I am not saying everyone will be the right one,but it does make it easier.
as for the ones that lie and are not real,at least this way,you should be able to find out over time before you meet.

our lives are increasingly depend on technology as opposed to face to face contact.So its not at all surprising that millions of people are dating online.
So i think its good if you think u trust that person.
