Dangers of Online Dating
It is no longer a news that online dating is one of the fastest growing industry in the world today, yet, only a handful of relationships started online do end up successful, why? The answer to that ‘why’ question will be answered in this very article shortly.
Latest research on this very topic reviewed that 1 in every 5 persons in the world today that make use of the internet have engaged in one form of internet or online dating or the other, and have registered with one or two different dating sites, yet 3 in every of these 5 persons are still single searching or single not searching because of either heartbreak or failure to find true lasting love, so what could be the possible reasons for this mass failure of online dating? We will address all that shortly.
Sometime last year, a friend of mine moved to a new country to live permanently, and he had no relationship back home, so he decided to find love in his new country of residence via internet. Fortunately for him, he met a lady living near his city of residence, and they started communicating online for over a month plus. Finally, they decided to take the bull by the horns by arranging a meet up. Unfortunately, my friend was disappointed as much his partner was, why? My friend didn’t let the lady know he was a new migrant with no job, and his partner committed her own crime of using a photoshopped picture of herself, which raised my friend’s expectation, thinking that he has met a super-elegant lady.
As if that was not enough, my friend got to discover with time that the lady is a single mother, and that was how the relationship crumbled in less than three months of meet up.
Now, this is just one out of the millions reasons why 99% of online relationships don’t work out. Below is a summary of the numerous reasons why internet dating in the whole world today hardly work out successful as prospected by those vying into it.
Reasons Most Online Dates Fail
1. Majority of girls searching for love online, don't really want to meet just nice guys, but miracle lovers. What do I mean by ‘miracle lovers’? What I mean is that majority of girls searching for a date via internet, are looking to find- rich, handsome, God-fearing, sexy-looking, extraordinarily loving, caring, homely and faithful man to lavish money and gifts on them and meet their insatiable financial needs. And they fail to understand that such qualities can never come in one package even in real life; which was the main reason most girls decided to widen their impossible search for an extraordinary lover online, not necessarily because they don't have dates in real life or are not being approached by guys in real life, but because they want a super-rich-prince-charming who must also be a pope Johnpaul and Romeo at the same time.
2. On the other way, majority of the guys searching for a date online are not financially buoyant to meet the above criteria that the ladies are looking for, hence the conflict in expectations between the two genders.
3. Thirdly, majority of guys searching for a date online, are actually not searching for love, but looking for sex-mates to satisfy their desperate need for sex.
4. And for the girls that are searching for true love online without criteria 1 attached to their search, are mostly not physically attractive or good-looking as most guys searching online expect, are over-aged, and most times with bad manner and faulty interpersonal relation skill.
5. The good ones are just too few and most often drop the idea of searching online after few bad encounters, abandoning the race for the bad ones.
6. The few nice, honest and ambitious guys looking for date online have no money due to increasing global unemployment, which makes them stand no chance of getting their desired date online since the majority of the females searching via the internet are searching for rich guys to spend on them and take care of their insatiable material needs.
7. Ladies world over harbor so much insecurity, and are too scared of poverty, which no one would blame them because of the present global economy situation. And in contrary, the men want the ladies to start loving them even while they are still struggling to find their fit financially, so as to prove to them (guys) that their love for them is real and not because of money or material.
8. People (male and female) searching online do hardly reveal their true personality to the people they end up meeting online, and so the relationship end as soon as each party discovers the other party’s true personality which are often times not what they expect.
9. People searching online are hardly honest to the people they meet online- some use enhanced photographs to lure people into attraction, some use false bio data, and other vital personal information, which are often times revealed once the relationship materializes to real life affair and always lead to the relationship failure.
