“There’s no way to get around it; online dating is work, and some people are more skilled at this type of communication than others.” — Rachel Martin
Dating, the word itself has a tinge of magic, that gives us goosebumps, make us smile, take us to a fantasy world and shake our minds. Twinkling eyes and racing heart are all signs that scream out loud, that now we are ready to explore with our choice.
Recent studies have shown that dating apps have garnered attention and has been in the spotlight for quite some time now.
It is expected to reach new heights in the coming years.
Right from the age of 18 to the age of 50, everyone seems fascinated with this new and unarguably convenient way of communication to find someone or, I would say, “someone special.”
Why do we choose dating apps? What fascinates us?
Several thoughts rushing in your mind after reading the question, trying to find that one suitable answer, some are struggling with their thoughts, some are confused, some might already know why they chose it and some are yet to explore the answer to their “why.”
It is quite evident that dating apps are fun, the concept of dating is considered as the most elite member of the ‘let’s have some fun’ group. Everyone has a new definition of what they have understood about it, some will try to experience to form an opinion.
Here listing a few things which make us choose online dating, let’s see if you can relate:
· Communication one of the strongest reasons you would like to opt for it. Coming to reality, breaking the ice has always been a task for most of us, crushing on someone is natural and cute, what about approaching that cute someone? Fear of rejection or feeling of embarrassment stop us from doing so, but things are easy when you just have to text, without having to ask for his/her number.
· Convenient, surely it is, traveling to someplace every day, just to get a glimpse, sounds romantic, isn’t it? Yes, till the person doesn’t think you’re following him/her. These apps let you see and text anytime of the day, not to miss the video call.
· Consent. If someone really bothers, you have a good option of cutting them off and not be scared about sharing your contact or knowing all about you. If at all you already have shared your contact.
· Allows us to take our time to decide. Neither letting in false hopes nor giving one.
· You try on a lot of clothes before you find the perfect one. Similarly, these dating apps lets you talk to multiple people at the same time, with no compulsion of being friends with them. Remember, every friend was a stranger once.
· You won’t be coming across people who are going to judge you, even if they do, you don’t have to bother. Virtual insults cause less emotional harm.

Most people are of the mindset that online dating is mostly for the people who are looking for hookups or casual dates, if you want you can change that, not necessary that you have to.

The Virtual world can help to a certain extent, building your real-world needs much more.
The real thing is happiness. The connection should make you feel happy for it to last long whether it is online or offline. Love is beyond just fun and fascination, it is beyond what words can ever express.
