What do you think of online dating?
place for you to do meaningless "shopping" or just an extra help for Cupid
It's just another tool that can be used to meet new people. Naturally not all sites are equal and it's wise to use good commonsense when meeting strangers under any conditions whether it be in a nightclub, at the mall, on the beach or even in church.
I'm not a fan personally. I think it's too dangerous, especially for teenagers and young adults. I don't think I need to say why...
I know at least three couples who have done it successfully, still I do not recommend it because of so many other stories of deception etc. My advice for those who want to try it is: Be careful and prayerful. Choose a reputable site.
