Cupids Dating Blog

I think the dating world is one of the few places where anyone is still trying to be normal. People will pierce their... well, what won't people pierce these days? Most of the young people you meet identify with some kind of subculture that gives them some kind of unique identity. Everyday fashion is constantly becoming more avant-garde and even the most technophobic people spend most of their lives in front of a computer and carry an iPod with them wherever they go.

However, for all of this, a lot of people still find the idea of dating online weird. Sometimes I think that this is because - compared to a lot of the things going on in the world - it's actually too normal. However much our lives have changed, most people still want to meet someone for the same old reasons, and so we think that since our motivations haven't changed, our methods shouldn't either.

The good news is that lots of people have gotten over their inhibitions. Whoever you are, whether you're looking for a fit guy or to meet a few beautiful, sexy ladies, you can find what you're looking for online because there are plenty of people that have embraced the fact that, in all aspects of our lives, we're living in a high-tech, computerized world.

You also have to think of it like this: yes, maybe that sexy cutie you saw at the bar will never need to look online because she doesn't get enough attention. On the other hand, she might well prefer to meet a guy online and have a chance to actually talk to him for a while to find out if he's actually interesting and confident or if he spent all night drinking up the courage to walk over and try a dumb line on her. Comparatively, the Internet offers her many advantages.
