U.S. writer gives five reasons online dating is better

Jaime Zepeda, California Dating Editorialist

  Online dating
   

Imagine you are in a bar. You spot a lovely lady across the room. Her friends leave her for a second, she is by herself. Perfect opportunity! But, what do you do? What do you say? Do you even have anything in common? Why are you perspiring so much? Should you just go and talk — oh, too late. Her friends came by and dragged her to another bar.

Another scenario. You are in a coffee shop. You look to your right, and there sits a cute man drinking his espresso. He looks like he is there by himself. You know you should approach him, but you are not sure if it is even worth it. So much wasted time in the past with people that were not even close to your type. He might have a girlfriend, he might have kids, he might be a monk. Just forget it.

These are opportunities to meet people that don’t happen. We live in a busy world, and dating keeps taking a lower and lower spot in our list of priorities. Our time is compromised, and our inhibitions don’t help much either.

This is where 'online' dating comes in. This is where Datingbook comes in.

Here are some 5 really good reasons, tested by yours truly, why Datinbook’s online dating service can help you find someone you will actually like, and make it easier for you to make the connection.

 

1. People here are also looking: You never who is available and who isn’t. This guessing game keeps us from even saying “Hi”. But luckily, people you find on Datingbook are actually looking for someone. They have taken the time to register, fill their profile, and ‘market’ themselves to find the one they are looking for. That could be you!

2. Less pressure: You don’t have to come up with the best line, or crack a joke worthy of a sitcom to get things started. The interactions here are much less pressured. Be yourself, be comfortable, and begin getting to know each other.

3. It fits your schedule: Instead of driving across town to that new hip bar, or hopefully bumping into the love of your life while buying celery, meeting people should be more flexible. Work, responsibilities, and daily happenings can leave little time for dating. But online dating makes things easier for you. With Datingbook, that little time you have is more than enough to let sparks fly!

4. Have something to talk about: Are you both Gemini? You can know immediately by looking at their Datingbook profile and have something in common already. Does she like reading like you? Does he enjoy Mexican food, too? Their profiles on Datingbook give you tons of information to start a conversation from. No more awkward silences, just fun chit-chat.

5. Meet knowing each other: Does she look like the perfect girl for you? Once you set up a chance to meet, you will come in feeling like you know each other better than many friends do. You will know what you both like, the sense of humor you share, and will be so comfortable with each other it wont feel like this is the first time you’ve met.

It can get a bit crazy trying to meet people out there. Make it easier on you, and significantly raise your chances of meeting the one by taking advantage of Datingbook’s many benefits. Who knows, that guy at the coffee shop might be in Datingbook already, waiting to find other espresso lovers— like you.
