"The advantages/pros of internet/online dating"

1. Unless you are a minor, it is safer meeting and screening someone first online than meeting someone physically, which carries the risks of being raped or being mugged;

"Online-dating: risks and disadvantages of cyber dating"

Attractive and effortless as it may seem, online dating or dating online has its fair share of risks and disadvantages. One needs to be careful, to do some research and not register if you feel uncomfortable with any online dating site. Seek only sites that provide some protection, are regulated and have a strict set of rules.

These are some of the disadvantages of internet dating or online dating

Assuming that you'll only use secure, reputable sites, the disdadvantages/cons of Internet-dating are that:

1. You may not like the actual person when you get to meet them. It's easy to imagine a certain type of person when you like everything they say online. Keep an open mind about this and take your final meeting as part of getting to know each other, rather than the start of an offline, physical relationship.

2. Of course people are not always what or who they say they are. Be careful. Don't believe everything you hear, especially when you are not face to face with the person. I wish you safety, wisdom and lasting happiness with your internet or online dating ventures.
