Dating Websites..Use Your Brain

People don't realize that the reason why dating web sites are so successful is because its all about psychology, playing with the mind. If someone tells you a certain site is successful at getting people married you automatically assume that it is true and that you will also find success because others have done so. Women especially are guilty for falling for this. My friend got married using Match.com so I will find marriage too is the thought of most women. The sites begin by asking you a series of questions and they use your answers to connect you with people who have answered the same or have similar answers as yours. After you answer the questions you will then receive pictures and profiles of men with similar interests and lifestyles as yours. Because the majority of people who use these sites lie, a person chosen for you may not be all he says he is. Women immediately start planning in their heads how their lives are going to end up if they meet the person of their dreams and that dream usually include marriage, children and a white picket fence. Just from a picture a woman will start planning their wedding just because the site says people they have chosen for you is good for you. If a million people join a site the chances of people meeting and getting married is high but how many is the question that people should ask. If you are placed in a room with 500,000 people the chances of you meeting someone with similar interests is high but it may only be 2 out of the 500,000 that will honestly be good for you. Because the site says these men are your match a person will get it in their head that this is true and immediately seek a relationship based on what a computer randomly chose for you.

We live in a time where people are tired of going to bars or are tired of leaving find love up to chance. Dating websites are convenient but you have to remember its a business and a business will use everything possible to sell you something and in this case its the chance of finding love.

If you are going to use the internet to meet a mate don't take it too seriously. If you decide to meet someone don't start planning your wedding on the first date. Meet someone have fun and choose wisely. Don't rush into anything because a computer, an inanimate object, chose a man/woman for you because chances are the person you are meeting really isn't who they say they are. Remember sites like Match.com are put together by psychologists so use your brain and not your heart when choosing a mate on a dating website.
