If Online Dating Sites Are So Bad, Why Do People Keep Using Them?

People falsely believe online dating sites to be a magical solution to their dating woes.

The truth is, if you have had issues with finding a suitable mate in real life, the same thing is about to happen on online dating sites.

The issue isn’t with online dating sites per se.

It is with the unrealistic expectations that people who choose to use them have.

When these people don’t meet the perfect mate on an online dating site, they scream and yell that online dating sites are so bad and a waste of time.

They tell their friends and family members that online dating sites are a sham.

Imagine having the same mindset as these people.

You sign up on online dating websites with all the unrealistic expectations in the world.

Yet, you have never attracted the perfect man into your life in real life.

In real life, your girlfriends and family members have told you about how beautiful and amazing you are.

They have told you about how you deserve the perfect man and that you are so worth it.

By the time you are opening your laptop or smartphone to sign up on online dating sites, your mind is filled with a bloated sense of self.

You genuinely believe everything that your friends and family have told you over the years about how beautiful and amazing you are.

Inevitably, you believe that you deserve nothing but the best in a future partner.

This future partner is the embodiment of perfection.

He is profoundly handsome, six feet tall and above, makes over six figures a year in income, comes from a great family, and loves dogs.

Basically, the Prince Charming you have dreamt about ever since you were a little girl.

As you use your laptop or smartphone to sign up on online dating sites, your thoughts are filled with the words of these friends and family members, as well as the childhood memories of the type of man you thought your future partner would be.

It’s no wonder that you are filled with anger and bitterness when you haven’t met that perfect man a few weeks or months after signing up on online dating apps.

Unfortunately, everything that friends and family told you about your own perfection over the years led to you having unrealistic expectations of the man you want to match up with on online dating sites.

You received numerous matches on online dating sites, but none of them matched the image of the perfect man you believed you deserved.

Disappointed, you react anger.

You swear off online dating sites and tell everyone that they are so bad.

You decide to meet your perfect man through social circles and in real life.

As the weeks go by, there are no guys you like approaching you through social circles and in real life.

Those who do, don’t meet the expectations you have in a perfect mate.

Before you know it, you are wondering whether you should give online dating platforms another try.

Maybe there was something you missed.

What if there are now better options in men available, now that several weeks or months have gone by with you no longer using them.

Suddenly, you are opening that laptop or smartphone again and signing back onto online dating platforms.

Given the volume of men on dating sites, which far surpasses women, the thought that you are missing out on a possible match is nigh impossible to resist.
