Dating on the Internet or finding love in Cyberspace can be exciting, inviting and instant. We live in a society that requires and wants everything immediately --- instantly. We have fast food restaurants, drive-through bank tellers, instant credit, instant potatoes, instant coffee, numerous other things and now instant love!

The Internet provides an instant manner of communication by the click of a mouse on a keyboard you can be instantly connected to people all over the world, thanks to our modern technology. Internet dating is another way of meeting people. As with everything there are pros and cons to Internet/Cyberspace love connections. It is similar to dating clubs, organizations, singles dances, cruises and other ways that connect singles with other singles.

The Internet is another source of meeting new and interesting people. It is also one of the tools to use to meet that special someone with which to have a long-term happy relationship or marriage.

Internet dating can be fun, exciting and scary ALL at the same time! There are many levels of excitement and we all react in various ways. While it is good to move out of the 'Sleeping Car of the Relationship Train,' it s also wise to use balance and common sense.

People may have a fantastic relationship over the telephone or by email but could be sorely disappointed when they meet in person and get to know one another. Some people may not be honest about their age, appearance, employment, intentions or marital status. It is as much taking a risk and moving out of your comfort zone as meeting people anywhere through newspaper ads, friends, acquaintances, dating services or place of employment. It is easier to access meeting people over the Internet than by some other methods.

Internet Dating provides a little different angle on meeting people. Some of us are trained to love through our eyes -- by what we see, not from our hearts.

One lady had a fantastic relationshipby email and lengthy telephone conversations and when she met the gentleman she could not get past the fact that he was, in her opinon, grossly overwieight. In his email he said he was a little big. She said, their minds had fallen desperately in love, but their bodies did not cooperate. The relationship fizzed out. Sometimes I think about those two minds in love, floating and travelling in space. . . . . .

Donald met Rhoda on the Internet Chat Line. They carried on a long distance romance. Finally they met and have since moved in together. They found happiness though cyberspace.
