Ok.. so I'm not sure if anyone else was as creeped out as I was about that virtual dating site we saw in class, but I hope they were, because it's beyond weird. Chances are, if someone who wants to do one of those types of dates when there are services such as Skype that would make it a virtual date, except with the real person, they are hiding something. You're only going to attract freaks...
Now thats not to say that online dating is all bad. I think it's okay if you're over 35. Harsh as it may be, I don't think there's a reason for it when you're young. Go out there! Socialize! It's not hard when you're in the under 30 crowd.
And although I'm sure there are situations when this happens with the older crowd, I feel it's dangerous to do online dating when you're young. Unfortunately, not all of us have the instinct to know when something isn't exactly safe. When you're older, I think it becomes easier to know when a situation could be really dangerous.
Overall, stay away from virtual dating. You want people to know, like, and date you for the real you! NOT a pre-made cartoon character that you pick out for yourself or a virtual location for your date!
