Dating today has changed dramatically from the time our parents dated. In those days people met in church, libraries, grocery stores or were introduced by friends and family. Blind dates were very popular and often unsuccessful. Today, dating has taken on a new and refreshing form. There are, I would venture to say, pluses in both methods of meeting new people for potential dates. It is good to meet people face to face the first time because you get to look them eye to eye and if you are very observant, you notice body language. You can tell if that person is nervous, fearful, overly excited and in some cases, unfriendly or arrogant. The great thing about meeting people on the internet is you can live almost anywhere in the world and still meet and connect with fresh faces or you can meet people in your own city. In addition you get to have conversations with them before you ever meet.

One of the issues today is that people are a lot more mobile than they once were. Therefore, international online dating sites are not only desired but in some cases, needed. It is not at all uncommon for an employer to transfer employees to different parts of the world every two or three years today. That move could place an employee in an area where the type of person they prefer to date is rare or nonexistent. So, out of necessity, using the internet to find that special someone has become very popular and socially acceptable. Today, more and more people are giving awesome testimonies about their experiences with meeting new friends and spouses online at new dating sites. You can also make friends and sometimes these relationships develop into something more permanent. Who would have believed this would be a normal trend just twenty years ago?

Online dating is also an option for the shy and introverted person. Lets face it, everyone is not a social butterfly. Some people are very shy by nature and meeting people up close and personal the first time can be an uncomfortable experience and for some, nerve wrecking. For the introvert, the international online dating experience can be more gratifying because the first meeting is not an up close and personal one. After communicating online for a while, the transition to a face to face meeting is easier.

Dating online has also become more acceptable for seniors, single parents, disabled, gays and people who prefer to date within their religion or race. Even interracial, military and the disabled can find online dating to be a more viable option these days.

So, if you would like to meet new people to date, find new friends or find that soul mate you have been searching for, give online dating a chance. You may be pleasantly surprised how far dating online come over the last few years.
