Our traditional way to meet people is changed due to social media sites. Now, we are connected online with each other, so trend of meeting people face to face is decreasing (sothers, 2018, para. 2). Process of finding a partner is also changed and people use social media sites (online dating sites) which is becoming popular among people, these days (sothers, 2018, para. 2). In starting years of trend of online dating on social media sites like tinder, grindr , facebook or instagram, people were scared to find partners because it was not easy to feel the emotions for a person to whom you didn't even meet and also because of the risks of dishonesty (sothers, 2018, para. 3). But, nowadays the trend of online dating took a revolutionary change as surveys says that 50% of couples are met through social media sites (sothers, 2018, para. 4). Because of these sites people find their soulmates and happy in their marriages, thus strengthens their personal relationships (sothers, 2018, para. 5). As we are looking at change in perceptions regarding online dating and relationships from past to today, it seems that personal relationships will be stronger by 2030 because social media sites are helping people in finding their partners as perfect match (sothers, 2018, para. 7). By the passing of time people started uploading their stories of togetherness, who met online. These stories leave an impact on others and change their perception regarding online dating (sothers, 2018, para. 7). Now, people started taking these sites serious for their life long decisions, thus improving their relationships (sothers, 2018, para. 7). In 2030, this trend will be skyrocketed and people will continue to meet online (sothers, 2018, para. 7). In today’s time, as we can see many successful marriages who met through online dating, it will be continued and will strengthen their relationships in 2030 (sothers, 2018, para. 8).

ReplyDeleteHello Veerinder,
ReplyDeleteI agree with you that there are lots of differences between means of communication now and in the past. There is no doubt that these sources will be more established in the future with lots of new features. There was the time when people got married each other without knowing them and nowadays they marry with them to whom they know. There are differences in sources to meet them. Some of them find their partners on social media sites. I agree with the proportion that you have mentioned that more than 50% of the couples will meet online in 2030 (Daily Mail, 2014, para.1). As you said, they would be able to get their partners according to their requirements which is exciting to know about advancement in the social media sites. I also agree with you that people share their opinions about meeting each other and getting a partner online on their social media accounts that encourages others to find a partner and it will remain same in 2030 where 7 out of 10 people would share their opinions and thank on social media sites about finding partner online (Daily Mail, 2014, para. 3). I would suggest you an article that reflects on online dating and relationships.

Hello Veerinder,
ReplyDeleteI am agreeing with you that the concept of dating has been changed. Nowadays people prefer online dating rather than offline because they stay more active on social networking sites. You have mentioned that according to some surveys more than 50% will meet online within a decade. You also mentioned that personal relationships will be stronger by 2030 because they can find their best match through the help of these online sites. Moreover, people share their experience of togetherness which also influence others to use these sites to find their partners. But, according to some researchers online dating will rely on data because matchmaking sites will use data to find perfect partners. So, I will suggest a link to have a look because it will talk about data in more depth.
