cm0002How couples meet in the US
RhaedasI don't think there's a "right" way, people adapt to how our society functions. Proud to be part of the few at the beginning of the red line, met on Q-Link and we're still together, so it can work. I would say "online" should be broken into separate lines, as there's different ways to meet online, and some of them let you interact and "know" a person better than others (like dating apps - which also existed before the internet!)
Q-Link
Now, that’s a blast from the past!
I agree that “online” is too much of a generalization. There definitely needs to be a differentiation between people meeting each other in an online meeting space not specifically set up for dating vs. a dating app or website which is specially looking to match people up.
If you meet on a forum or other type of social environment that is not specifically for dating, is it really much different than meeting at a bar or a bowling alley?
