It’s funny to think now that not too long ago online dating was considered to be something only done by losers and weirdos that couldn’t make friends or meet dates in real life because there was something wrong with them. When mainstream people first started experimenting with online personals, they didn’t tell anyone what they were doing because they were embarrassed and afraid that they would be made fun of by their friends and loved ones. Most people who met online didn’t tell anyone where they met their new partner for fear of being judged harshly or because they were afraid that their friends and family would treat their new partner differently if they found out. It’s pretty interesting to see just how far our society has changed with regards to socializing and finding friends and lovers online.
