Five million members and growing, thousands are simultaneously browsing the page online. Also a popular online dating site, Friendfinder contains a chat room and searches to narrow down to what the member is searching for.

These are just some of the online dating agencies that are often visited and bookmarked by chatters worldwide.

However, online dating is not at all cheery. There are people who scam others by pretending who they aren’t. They lie about their name, their age and even their pictures. They put photographs there that really aren’t them. The problem with getting too hooked on online dating is that the person can be deceived or taken advantage off.

That is why there are some people who believe that it is better to have known each other personally than online. However, because of the inspirational stories that can be seen on these online dating site’s testimonials, there are still those who believe that they might find the one they’re searching for online.

To each their own. There are those who are better dealing in face-to-face encounters while others are more comfortable to make friends online. An analysis on online dating stated that a factor why most chatters prefer to introduce themselves and make friend on the web is because they have less self-confidence than those who are extrovert-in-person.

One research has shown that another factor affecting the dating preference (personal or online) of an individual is his physicality. Those who are not comfortable with how they look hide behind a computer screen and hope that their chat mate will like and respond well to their personality. Who knows? They might fall for them regardless of how he or she looks like.

Online dating in the modern times is similar to that of posting a personal on newspapers in days of yore. In “Original Sin,” Antonio Banderas meets Angelina Jolie via correspondence and were wed the very day she arrived at his hometown. See how that turned out. Angelina, apparently, was an expert thief and swindled Antonio with his money.

But look at it this way. In the end, they still loved each other.
