On the other hand, many Web surfers have found their happily-ever-after in cyberspace, which is the reason that the Internet continues to gain popularity among those searching for love, explains Ron Worthy of Blackplanetlove.com
"Compared to the alternative, which is meeting people in normal life situations, the Internet is more convenient, cost effective, and it gives you access to a diversified selection of [potential suitors]," Worthy says. "The Internet is not a threat to a relationship because ultimately, what is going to keep people together is open communication and trust. The Internet allows you an opportunity to increase your odds of finding a person who has those qualities." The Internet can also be used as a fun and exciting vehicle for couples to openly express what they are really looking for in their relationship, adds Art (Chat Daddy) Sims.
"A lot of times, people don't question what it is that their mate really wants or needs," Sims explains. "Internet chatting allows people to live out their fetishes and fantasies, and can be a way for couples to get that info out. As they say, the couple that plays together, stays together."
