In the day of smartphones and hi-tech computers, online dating is the newest trend. Since we prefer online shopping, food, items why not swipe right for an online date too? The idea of online dating is kind of inspired by the matrimonial sites, advertising for suitors. With the budding business of web the marketers thought why not a chat room, and hence a private space to share emotions. By the era of modern technology, perfectly formed dating sites come into market with the sole purpose to help people socialize, such as Tinder, Zoosk, OkCupid, Bumble and many more.

Nowadays the idea of web finding love for others has been embraced by millions of people and be it for relationships or hook-ups, dating apps are doing a great job. But with rapid increase, the idea of is communication is hampering, they are lacking the face to face approach. Few sites do not have sufficient security to uproot cyber crimes. So here are few things one should keep in mind before choosing the internet as your matchmaker.

Dating sites always showcase your best sides. From the profile pictures to basic information people tend to give their best shot; so while swiping, one should keep in mind that the reality can be pretty different.

One of the surveys has shown that people with the expectation of finding true love, through sites are pretty much insecure. They fear the idea rejection, so instead of asking a person face to face they use this as a shield, and undoubtedly online dating sites never reveal the person who “left swipes” you.

Online dating sites are replica of advertisement and sadly we are advertising ourselves. Immediately just after signing in we have provide our information on the basis of which a person will choose. And people pretty much lie there.

The art of dating has shattered the idea of love for many people. Very often after investing time and effort people come across extremely bizarre stuff. A person may be using the same lines to impress dozen of people at the same time. The thought can be pretty scary and the worst part is you’ll never know what’s underneath the revised bio.

At the same time it has made easier to come across different types of people where you’ll be the in charge of your presentation. But we should keep in mind that it might not end as Meg-Tom love story in You’ve Got Mail, rather as an episode of catfish.
