The internet ‘opens up whole new dating pools’

Single soldiers looking to broaden their search for a prospective partner may find online dating is the medium for them.

This is because adjunct professor of sociology at St Louis Community College-Meramec Lindy Hern has claimed the internet can make available whole new dating pools, The Montage reports.

The expert noted: "Whereas it would seem impossible to have the physical or cultural capability of dating someone outside of your geographical or cultural region, the Internet has opened up this possibility."

Lucyane Teixeira-Everett, 38 and a student at the learning institution, found her husband through the world wide web and revealed she turned to cyberspace after her friend met her partner over the net.

Miss Teixeira-Everitt added she never knew what real love was until she met her hubby through the medium.

A recent article on Newsformatics.com described online courtship as fun and engaging, adding the approach has removed much of the complexity formerly associated with searching for a mate.
