Nowadays many people think that online dating is one of the most useful ways to meet new people from different countries, but they don't usually see the disadvantges of this form of communication.
If online dating would not have any advantages, people had not used it. Online dating allows us to communicate easily with all the people that we want to talk to, it is a good way to comunicate for shy or busy people and it can helps us to meet new people or even to start a relationship with someone that has the same interests that you have. In addition, you can chat online any time.
On the other hand, online dating has some disadvantages that are very important. When you are chating with someone that you don't know personally, you don't really knowif this person is the one that it is suppose to be or if he or she is somebody else. For this reason, online dating can be a fake and maybe his or her indentity is stolen.
To conclude, in my opinion, I think that online dating has more disadvantages than advantages and it is always better if you meet new people face to face because you know who are they for sure and it never can be a fake.
