Online dating Vs traditional dating

With the advent of internet and technology in almost every minute of our life, things are changing in a very random way from what they were few years back. People are discovering new options and new means to do different things in a much different way from which they has been doing it traditionally for decades. Such is the scenario also in the world of dating. People now have option to go for online dating which uses internet and technology and is quite different from traditional dating. In this article we will discuss the pros and cons of both these type of dating, so that one can choose the right way of dating according to their needs and preferences.


Online dating has been an immensely popular since the last decade. The main reason for its huge success is because of some obvious reasons. Firstly, today in the age of neck break speed, when people are working hard to keep with the space of time, going out in social events and parties just to meet someone new has become a luxury.

Online dating thus comes into play leaving behind traditional dating in this matter because people can easily stop sacrificing their precious time and money in night clubs and social events and look for their dream partner in an online dating site being in the comfort of their home. But all these come with a cost. Traditional dating scores in being a more romantical journey than online dating. This is because one gets to physically meet their counterpart in traditional dating which is not possible when you are dating over the internet.

Since online dating is virtual, you can never be sure of the other person’s credibility unless and until you meet him or her face to face.

This is not going to be the case for traditional dating, as you will be meeting the person you are dating face to face from the first day of your dating only. Thus, in traditional dating it is not as easy to bluff as is in case of online dating.

Moreover, online dating allows you to date with people from any corner of the world. Geographical location is never a barrier in case of online dating. But, if you are someone for whom long distance relationship is a big no, then traditional dating will be the right choice for you. In traditional dating you only meet with people from your locality or nearby places who you can meet physically face to face from the first day of your dating.


Thus, both online dating and traditional dating has it's own advantages and disadvantages. It is always advisable to go for any particular kind of dating whether online or offline depending upon your own need and preferences.

Traditional Or Online Dating?

If you grew up in a world where the internet and mobile phones are prevalent, then it's difficult for you to see life before the digital age. Can you imagine doing your homework without going on-line? How about sending an urgent message to your loved one who lives abroad?


How about having to shop for goods that are not available in your local community? Indeed, for most of us who grew up with the World Wide Web, it's challenging to imagine doing certain activities without the internet. For some people, these activities include dating.


Traditional dating generally refers to meeting someone in person, going on dates, calling each other on the phone and talking face-to-face to learn more about each other. Today, the internet has changed the face of the dating world and many people cannot wonder if this is for better or for worse.


Breaking borders


One of the best things about on-line dating is that it allows you to get to know as many people as possible, or as many people who sign up for on-line dating.

Before the internet, many people had a difficult time trying to look for other singles whom they can potentially date.

Basically, dating opportunities were limited to the people at your school or office, the men and women who hang out at the local bar and the blind dates and distant relatives that your friends and families introduce you to once in a while. Needless to say, this can be very limiting on your part. This means that your dating options are limited to your school mates, your office colleagues and the same old people you see in the same old bars. What if the love of your life lives two states away? On-line dating allows you to find your perfect match, regardless of distance and location.


Getting to know each other


Before the internet, getting to know each other began right on the first date.

You have to dress up, go all the way to the restaurant and spend time and money just to see if the person in front of your could be ?the one?. In some cases, people go home disappointed when they learn that they have absolutely nothing in common with their date. Not only did they waste their time and money and wore their good clothes for nothing; they also wasted the hope that they invested on a date.

With on-line dating, you are given the chance to know the person before the actual date so you can know right off the bat if you two will have something in common.
