Why such a jaded tone? Well first of all I think online dating is the easy way out and a total cop out to the entire system of male to female interaction. I’d be lying if online dating didn’t cross my mind at some point, but I can gladly admit I have never (nor will ever) venture into that world.
For starters I think there is such a thing as natural selection, before technology there was no such thing as online dating. Cyberspace is cheating the entire system; it’s like finding a shortcut for relationships. The main argument for both genders is the typical “well I don’t have time to date” bullshit that could only come from people who hate partying, love their job too much or spend their days dwelling in the basement of their parents place. Listen if you have time to make a facebook profile, or go to the gym then you can find time to go out and meet people
Now I’ll give you that some people may be forced into this situation. For guys, it’s the anti-social dudes who have zero interests and are typically boring. For women it’s in two categories: Fat girls and single mothers. Together these two sexes combine for endless awkward conversations and sexual frustration. Its desperation meets desperation, what’s the fun in that? I love it when people say online dating “doesn’t work” well duh silly it’s NOT NATURAL !
Now I write this with such haste because I think everyone should endure in the trenches of going out and meeting people. I don’t understand how we live in a society where people are creeped out when a stranger says “hi” but are willing to put their whole life story on Facebook. Meeting people can suck at times, but we live and learn but hey its part of life. Making new friends is like receiving a compliment; it can totally make your day. So put down the mouse/keyboard and get outside already.
