Online Dating: The ‘Value-Added’ Service For A Poor Economy

We’ve heard all the doom-and-gloom that the news can dish out on a daily basis. We’ve all seen our savings, investments and future earnings fall below the lowest possible forecasts.

And, if this isn’t news then what is?

Online dating is growing at a faster pace than recent years because it’s cheaper to spend $30.00 a month at an online dating service, meet some nice people, then try out a date, with less risk than pre-blowout-economy times, then it is to hang out at a neighborhood drinking palace, spend cash (or credit card!) on a few drinks and go home without any phone numbers or email addresses.

Online dating, once the foray of geeks and kids is now mainline and growing in popularity.

And you don’t have to trust me. Visit www.match.com, www.jdate.com, and even www.largefriends.ca and see for yourself how many people you can find, single and willing to trade messages in place of a first date, that live close to you.
