Online Romance

We are living in the age of technology. People are using computers and the Internet for nearly every aspect of their lives - to manage finances, to search for jobs, to go shopping, and even to find romance. Online Romance is becoming an increasingly popular method of meeting romantic partners online. Online Romance is a situation where two people develop a romantic relationship while communicating through the Internet. Meetings usually occur after a considerable time since the two parties first meet online. Relationships that start from a virtual acquaintance may be as fun as relationships that start in a more common manner.

Nowadays the things have changed totally. There are several sites through which people get connected for the purpose of marriage, they chat and know each other and decide on their own whether to get married or not. Sites like http://www.bharatmatrimony.com/, http://www.shaadi.com/ and many more are the online matrimonial services that make people get united from different parts of the country or rather different parts of the world.

Many Internet users feel that there is less pressure when meeting potential dates through Internet than face-to-face meetings. You can grow a relationship with a person with whom you are chatting and who is unknown to you. It is easier for a shy person to interact over the Internet because he/she can keep a desired level of anonymity. During an online date they are being judged solely on personality, rather than appearance. You have neither seen that person nor abled to understand that person totally but; according to me this is a better way of knowing him/her step by step.

One advantage of developing a romance through Internet is the fact that it encourages people to focus on each other's personalities. In the absence of the physical stimulation of real life interaction, people have to communicate with words to get to know one another. Many Internet romances successfully turn into conventional relationships, and those couples also reap the advantage of already knowing each other's personalities by being learnt to communicate well to each other. In those aspects, a couple whose romance first began online may be ahead of those couple meeting for the first time in real life and who never had the advantage of that prior Internet communication. When you meet someone you have known for a long time online, you are meeting a person who is at the same time both a stranger and also very familiar.

While writing about online Romance I cannot stop from telling my experience. My marriage happened in the similar way. We met through Bharatmatrimony and got to know each other very well and finally decided to get married in just a week's time. Our parents too liked the match and it was all settled. We came to know each other, chatted, talked about small things that made matters all the more easy for us to decide. I used to talk the most, he was a silent listener, and this made the match a perfect one. He stayed in Mumbai and I was in Kolakata, we never met, but we were confident because we knew each other very well even before meeting. Through online romance many are getting united with their life partners. It is a wonder in itself.

Some criticize Internet romance, thinking it is for the lonely or desperate. Others note that it is highly dangerous, as the person in the relationship might not be who they really are. People in Internet relationships can also cheat on their real partner easily, since in many cases of Internet romance there are no physical repercussions. However there is always a darker side of everything but in reality this is the eighth wonder of the world.
