Modern myths about dating

Like it happens today with many other things, online dating and dating in person accumulates much of various rumors and myths some people even use to follow. Let’s have a look at some of them and make it clear whether they can be confirmed or not.

Quantity is more important than quality

Many people think that the more people they go on a date with, the more lucky they are to find their “special someone”. Well, that kind of attitude towards dating (and online dating in particular) is typical for people with little experience in dating. However, the reality is that it’s always better to be more selective from the very start and therefore date a few people that look nice for you than a faceless crowd of people with no one it to become the right match for you. When it comes to looking for only one lifelong partner, dating becomes more serious than some mere statistical calculations, you know. That is why it’s not a good idea to spread yourself too thin, dating online too many people at once.

Fail at first date means no match for you

Of course, first impressions are the most important and matter much, especially when you try to understand, whether you share some interests, tastes, world perception and other things in common that show you have compatible values and goals and match each other with your dating partner.

But do you really think that it is possible to know the person so good within just one date? Even if your first date was unsuccessful, usually it takes a few dates to realize and have a clear understanding of whether you match each other or not. So if you are still in doubt, better give your dating another chance to be sure.

All the most beautiful men and women have already got married

Have you heard such an opinion? And now have a look at how many really smart men and women are looking for their love through the online dating sites for men and women. Perhaps, they haven’t met their match yet, right? So you have got all the chances to become the potential match for any of them – think of it. And let’s not forget about the fact that a lot of good people have got friends who are less successful in life or simply less beautiful but still managed to marry someone and live a happy married life.

And if we talk about physical attraction as such, pretty girls and handsome men can really get more dating offers but accept them less often than other people. Why? Just because their own list of criteria and requirements for the perfect dating candidate is longer or they use to concentrate on things besides appearance: talents, intelligence, wealth, etc.
