The development of social media technology has changed the dating world forever.<\/p>\n
With the advent of Twitter and Facebook, individuals are able to interact with each other in a number of different ways that were not previously possible. <\/p>\n
Indeed, there are plenty of stories of people finding love through a relationship struck up on one of these channels.<\/p>\n
According to the Edmonton Sun, the advent of new communication methods has brought challenges for individuals.<\/p>\n
"The subtlety of text messages and Facebook posts have nearly replaced the telephone conversations and personal interaction of early courtship altogether," the paper stated.<\/p>\n
As a result of the immediate connectivity offered by such sites, people should be cautious before committing to any face-to-face meetings.<\/p>\n
Individuals also need to have a set of guidelines in place, such as refusing to meet someone who has cancelled a date a number of times, or waiting a certain amount of time before responding to a text message.<\/p>\n
