Web 'dating' is becoming increasingly popular here are the pros and cons

Perhaps people are just becoming too stretched, between longer work hours, bringing work home and, for students, juggling both school and a job, but the fact is that web 'dating' appears to be on the rise. There are chat rooms and forums where busy people can get online for a few minutes, have a cyber date and then get right back into their work. You might even meet someone who lives in your local area, if you target community forums and local chat rooms. It seems that this is a popular way to meet and communicate with people online, even should you never meet in person. We spend so much time in front of our computers, it should come as no surprise that web 'dating' is the trendy, avant garde venue on the dating scene today. So, is this a good thing or not?

Here we take a look at the pros and cons, for your consideration. First on the list of pros, you may find cyber dating to be an efficient way to screen your dating possibilities. You can chat online and quickly get a sense of this individual, sometimes more quickly than you might in a face to face meet. People are sometimes more revealing when they can't see you, nor you them. Whereas it might take two or three 'real' dates before you are able to ascertain that this individual isn't worth your time, you might easily gain the same impression in fifteen minutes of chat room talk. On the other hand, it might well work in the reverse. This person may seem to be the guy or gal of your dreams.

While web 'dating' in this manner could work out well, one of the disadvantages comes in the form of the clever predators. Everyone knows the dangers present for teens, as their lack of experience and judgment makes them easy prey for people with ulterior motives. However, there are also predators who are polished enough to fool many adults, appearing to be a great catch any way you look at it.

If you want to get involved in web 'dating' and avoid trouble, it makes sense to be smart. If you just want to have an online relationship, you still need to protect yourself. Never divulge personal information about yourself, such as where you live, your phone number or even your email, to anyone online. Remember, you don't ever know who you're talking to, no matter how convincing they might be. If you do choose to communicate with someone by email, you're best off to set up a separate email account for each person you decide you want to get to know better. If the individual starts to get strange, you simply close the email account.

If you should meet someone local through a web 'dating' venue (who has disclosed this to you), take a good long time getting to know them before ever considering a face to face meet. When you do meet, it should be in a very public and crowded place. It's possible to have fun web 'dating', but it's imperative that you take the proper precautions. Good luck!
