Agreed that OD (= Online Dating) changed the world, but statistics show that OD has a pretty low success rate. All OD services are pretty good with marketing their "success stories", but they are in the low percentage range. And many ex-members come back after weeks or months once they realized that their - oh so perfect - match turns out to be not what they expected.

OD and TD (Traditional offline dating) are two total different ball games and have quite some very different rules. Just one example: OD is opening the door to the seemingly great world of LDR (Long Distance Realtionships). However, LDRs have their very own dynamics and problems. Statistics show that the vast majority of LDRs don't last long.

Don't get me wrong... I think OD is great and has it's special advantages, but people have to be very realistic about it. I know too many people who got hurt deeply in the world of cyber romance.
