Not Too Busy To Date

Not Too Busy To Date

The busier we get, the more important it becomes to find ways of streamlining our activities. Any abbreviation of our workload is welcome. Online dating is a great abbreviation of the process leading up to love. It provides the catalyst for couples to meet in a way that regular dating does not and brings people together that otherwise might not have met due to logistics or time.

One way that online dating brings efficiency is that it allows the dater to be very specific while searching for a mate. Daters can target a specific socioeconomic group or focus in on looks, religious preference, intelligence or values. The list of searchable traits is seemingly endless. And, with a pool of 23 million U.S. daters alone, the amount of choices is high.

Another way that online dating brings efficiency is that is that it takes away the often awkward first step. Instead of finding out what someone is like after one or more dates, searching online allows couples to know that their interests align in advance. In addition, because both parties know the other is available, the awkward "feeling out" stage is eliminated.

One final way that online dating brings efficiency is that there are new sites targeting the very busy daters. Hurrydate.com, for instance, sets up 10 four-minute dates for a fee of $35. This allows daters to quickly meet prospective dates in an efficient way. A whistle is blown after 4 minutes, allowing daters to move on to the next person. Sites such as this one really increase the amount of fellow daters one can meet.

To learn more about this great new way to meet lots of great singles, just visit the Voice of America website and read Paige Kollock’s article, Online Dating Practices Change the Face of Romance. And once you are ready to give it a try, we invite you to come back and read our dating reviews on some of the online singles sites that are available on the web.
