Means of dating


Dating is complicated by nature, but it becomes especially difficult when the terms of the relationship aren't made clear from the beginning. That’s why it’s so crucial to understand what you're getting yourself into before you begin the dating process. You should ask yourself, "Am I looking for a fling? Am I looking for a casual date? Or am I looking for a serious relationship?" Yes, it’s true, sometimes you might not know what you even want, but if that’s the case, you need to communicate that to your partner. Without proper understanding and a lack of communication, things will quickly turn sour – this is a fact.

Online dating or Internet dating


Online dating or Internet dating is a dating system which allows individuals,
couples and groups to make contact and communicate with each other over the Internet,
usually with the objective of developing a personal romantic or sexual relationship.
Online dating services usually provide unmoderated matchmaking over the Internet,
through the use of personal computers or cell phones.
Online dating services generally require a prospective member to provide personal information,
before they can search the service provider's database for other individuals using criteria
they set, such as age range, gender and location. Most sites allow members
to upload photos of themselves and browse the photos of others.
Sites may offer additional services, such as webcasts, online chat,
telephone chat (VOIP), and message boards. Some sites provide free
registration, but may offer services which require a monthly fee.

Virtual Dating


Virtual dating combines online dating with avatar-based virtual world exploration.
Virtual dating involves the use of avatars for people to interact in a virtual venue
that resembles a real life dating environment. For example, individuals can meet
and chat in a romantic virtual cafe in Paris or on a Caribbean resort and can
benefit from inworld quizzes and relationship questionnaires that help probe
the other's personality and compatibility.

A Time Magazine article entitled "Internet Dating 2.0" was published on January 19, 2007 citing current
and upcoming technologies and explains how people can now connect in a virtual dating environment.
Time describes how websites are allowing people to meet for an avatar based,
graphically enabled virtual date without leaving their homes.
