Often, women find themselves asking, 'Where have all the good guys gone?'. And really, where have they gone? Were they ever there in the first place? Well, ladies, I dont think they've actually gone anywhere. We just haven't found them. And why? Because they're hiding. And where are they hiding? Online, my friends, online!
According to a survey carried out by a company called Parship, there is now a 50:50 chance that your single friends are logging on to find love! In 2007 alone, 7.8 million people logged online to find a date by using an online dating website! The statistics even show that there are more men logging on than women, a mere 48% of women compared to the 52% of men!
And so far this year, 65% of singles have logged on for love! And again, according to this survey in Britain alone, there are at least 15 million single people! Isn't that astonishing? The population of Britain is around 65 million people, and if there 15 million singles, thats at least 23% of British people who are still searching! So my friends, if 7.8 million people are using online dating websites to find a partner, thats just over half of the 15 million singles!
If you have ever considered online dating websites but were too embarrassed, don't be! He's out there somewhere amongst several million others and if you are to join an online dating website, such as POF, or OK!Cupid then you are that one little step closer to finding him! And if you are still embarrassed because your other single friends are all "Omg! Online dating! How low can you get!" then show them this article with the statistics and be proud of yourself for having the confidence to put yourself out there!
Although, I will give you this. We are all well aware of the perverts and pedophiles that lurk around the interweb, so get to know someone first before you arrange to meet. And when you do, take a friend with you and get her to lurk a couple of meters behind. And then when you feel comfortable enough to take the rest of the time on your own, text her and let her know she can go home. And then, ring her when you get home safely! And then, do the same for her when she needs it! It means that you are both safe and if he turns out to be a right bore, you can text her to fake an emergency phone call and then run off for a drink together elsewhere!
But anyway, next time you are feeling down about being single, just remember this article and how you are only one single in 14 999 999 others!

This is a really helpful and good article you've written. We were talking about online dating the other day in the pub and how loads of people actually use it. If I was single I might consider it... I dunno
Great article! Not sure I would ever try online dating again if I became single, but I'm sure it works well for some people :)
