The Internet is a good way to meet people, but you have to be alert, because it can also bring you bad things. But, why are more people hooked on the internet to meet people?
Firstly, the internet is good for shy people, you aren’t face to face, so it is easier to be yourself without complexes.
Secondly, there are many forums or chats, so the chances of finding somebody similar to you are higher than in a disco, or in the street.
Lastly, thanks to the internet, drifting apart from someone you dislike is easier.
It seems that they are all benefits, but far from it, because for these same reasons it is easier to be cheated. Can you trust somebody who you have never seen?
In conclusion, the internet has pros and drawbacks (or cons), so you have to be conscious and cautious before meeting someone.
