Why Online Dating Doesn't Work

Here is the link to the article.

     Okay, well I've always had a sort of radical opinion on this: meet people in person. There is not enough human interaction today (says the man behind the blog). People's abilities of judgement are diminishing, and with the internet growing, likely will never return. A human meeting a fellow human is a magical moment that, in my opinion, defines us. We show who we really want to be to those who don't know us. The key is that it has to be in person, otherwise the illusion won't work and you'll be another sleazy online jerk. You might meet someone who seems repulsive online because her profile claims that, "she really loves cats," when in real life she is a leading biologist with a PhD who travels to Africa twice a year to study lions. You are not you online.
     Well, I thought this was a pretty generic article. There was nothing that jumped out at me. It was quite boring, but it was quick, and therefore, almost painless. It's worth looking at if you ask me because it only took a minute or so.
