Single soldiers looking for a fresh and exciting way to meet women may want to turn their attentions to online dating.<\/p>\n

This is because an article on Newsformatics.com has described the medium as a "fun and engaging" way to locate prospective partners.<\/p>\n

The post suggested the internet has removed much of the complexity previously involved in sourcing that special someone, claiming all a love-seeker needs to do is log on, sign up and another user who takes their fancy.<\/p>\n

It noted: "For people who are not too comfortable in meeting strangers this can be [a] very good way to hook up."<\/p>\n

Many couples who originally met via the web have since tied the knot and the platform is gaining popularity across the globe, the source added.<\/p>\n

And people who do find a suitor in cyberspace may want to make sure they take part in lots of kissing with their new partner, as the Herald Sun recently claimed the activity is an essential part of any relationship.<\/p>\n
