When online personals first made their way into market, many UK widowers thought it was a desperate attempt for the socially awkward, for the oddballs of society. Today, however, widowers have embraced online dating. It's no longer seen as abnormal or strange. In fact, many believe they'll be able to find their soul mate easier online rather than off. Online dating has skyrocketed in the past few years. It's a very lucrative industry. Back in August of 2003 over 40 million UK widowers visited an online dating site. Today that number just keeps growing. Most Durham online daters will attest that they like online dating better than dating in meatspace. Online personals are much simpler. They are more specific, more discerning. In the offline world, you're limited to people you meet in your town. Online you can meet widowed singles from all over the globe.

No doubt, you've seen it on the silver screen. You've heard friends talk about it. Maybe you've even thought about taking the plunge yourself. The fact is online personals have become incredibly popular. Your true love could be a mouse click away. There are some downfalls to internet dating, just as there are in real world dating. If you think about it, it's easy to trace the evolution of the whole online dating phenomenon. It's a consequence of email, instant messaging, chat rooms and social networking. The internet has brought lonely hearts together in a way that never was possible before. The natural extension, of course, is online dating. And more now than ever before, Durham men and women are using the internet to find romance. Many UK singles tend to exaggerate or out right lie about their looks, their age and their professions. Still, you can find romance if you look in the right places. It's easy to separate the bad eggs from the good ones and find your one true love.
