Who uses online dating, and isn’t that just for losers?
The online dating pool consists of just about every type of individual who’s out there in “real life” dating. There are seniors and recent high school graduates, world travelers and workaholics, obese people and anorexic people, rich people and poor people, and just about anyone else you can think of. This should make it obvious that there aren’t any real “types” of people who use online dating sites. Some people don’t have the time to attend speed dating events and singles’ nights, while others want to see if it’s possible to find out someone’s personality before wasting time, energy and money on multiple dates. There are plenty of reasons to try online dating, and the scene has evolved from a geek-filled pool to a fairly balanced distribution of all sorts of people.
