According to the Pew Research Center, three in ten US adults have used dating sites.
With this many millions of people using dating sites to find someone to date, it makes any perceived weirdness in using dating sites somewhat ill-conceived.
There was a time when dating sites were regarded as a destination for losers only.
These were people considered too unsuitable to find a date in real life who were relegated to finding one on a dating site.
Although there are certainly people on dating sites who are there due to a lack of success in finding dates in real life, the majority of people on dating sites actually have a dating history.
They have had lovers in the past from the real world.
